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
objectivesResistance to medications is one of the main complications in chemotherapy of cancer. It has been shown that some multidrug resistant cancer cells indicate more sensitivity against cytotoxic effects of TNF-α compared to their parental cells. Our previous findings indicated vulnerability of the mitoxantrone-resistant breast cancer cells MCF-7/MX to cell death induced by TNF-α compared to the parent cells MCF-7. In this study, we performed a comparative proteomics analysis for identification of proteins involved in induction of higher susceptibility of MCF-7/MX cells to cytotoxic effect of TNF-α. MATERIALS AND
methodsIntensity of protein spots in 2D gel electrophoresis profiles of MCF-7 and MCF-7/MX cells were compared with Image Master Platinum 6.0 software. Selected differential protein-spots were identified with MALDI-TOF/TOF mass spectrometry and database searching. Pathway analyses of identified proteins were performed using PANTHER, KEGG PATHWAY, Gene MANIA and STRING databases. Western blot was performed for confirmation of the proteomics results.
resultsOur results indicated that 48 hr exposure to TNF-α induced 87% death in MCF-7/MX cells compared to 19% death in MCF-7 cells. Forty landmarks per 2D gel electrophoresis were matched by Image Master Software. Six proteins were identified with mass spectrometry. Western blot showed that 14-3-3γ and p53 proteins were expressed higher in MCF-7/MX cells treated with TNF-α compared to MCF-7 cells treated with TNF-α.
conclusionOur results showed that 14-3-3 γ, prohibitin, peroxiredoxin 2 and P53 proteins which were expressed differentially in MCF-7/MX cells treated with TNF-α may involve in the induction of higher rates of cell death in these cells compared to TNF-α-treated MCF-7 cells.
