Anticancer Effect of Rosiglitazone, a PPAR-γ Agonist against Diethylnitrosamine-Induced Lung Carcinogenesis.
Article in ACS omega, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 5 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Multiple effects on cancer cells are exerted by the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPAR-γ). Recent studies have shown that rosiglitazone, a synthetic PPAR-γ ligand, inhibits the growth of cells. This research was designed to assess the impact of rosiglitazone on diethylnitrosamine (DENA)-induced lung carcinogenesis in Wistar rats and to study the underlying molecular mechanism. A total of 40 adult male Wistar rats were separated into four groups as follows: group 1 is known as a control. Group 2 is known as the DENA group (150 mg/kg, i.p.). Group 3 and group 4 denote DENA-induced rats treated with 5 and 10 mg/kg rosiglitazone, respectively. Lipid peroxidation, various antioxidant enzymes, histological perceptions, and caspase-3, Bcl2, and Bax gene expression were measured in lung tissues. Rosiglitazone treatment reverted the DENA-induced changes in the expression of these genes, inflammatory cytokines, and oxidative stress. However, blotting analysis discovered reduced caspase-3 and BAX expressions and elevated Bcl-2 expression in DENA-induced rats. The expression of such proteins causing DENA lung cancer was restored by rosiglitazone therapy.
