Use of Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs for Chemoprevention of Inflammation-induced Prostate Cancer.
Article in Turkish journal of pharmaceutical sciences, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesChronic inflammation has been known as one of the major causes of cancer progression and 25% of cancer cases initiate due to chronic inflammation according to epidemiologic data. It has been determined that chronic inflammation induces carcinogenesis through the abrogation of cell proliferation, apoptosis, and angiogenesis mechanisms. Therefore, it is believed that inhibition of inflammation-induced carcinogenic mechanisms is an efficient therapeutic strategy in drug development studies of cancer chemoprevention. It has also been observed that use of anti-inflammatory drugs reduces the incidence of cancer, and the risk of developing prostate cancer decreases 15-20% with regular use of aspirin and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID). MATERIALS AND
methodsIn this study, we investigated the effects of some clinically used NSAIDs on cellular mechanisms that play a role in inflammation-induced prostate carcinogenesis. Inhibition activities on the nuclear factor kappa-B signaling pathway, which activates tumorigenic mechanisms, as well as alterations on androgen receptor signaling, which regulates the proliferation of prostate cells, were investigated. In addition, protein kinase B (Akt) activation, which is stimulated a the inflammatory microenvironment, was examined.
resultsThe results showed that anti-inflammatory agents alter the protein levels of androgen receptors as well as tumor suppressor NKX3.1, and might trigger an unexpected increase in Akt
conclusionIt is suggested that inflammatory pathways and prostate carcinogenesis-specific mechanisms should be taken into account for the use of anti-inflammatory drugs for chemoprevention of inflammation-induced prostate cancer.
