Evaluation of Chemotherapeutic Drugs for Treatment of (Cisplatin-Resistant) Germ Cell Cancer Cell Lines.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Cisplatin resistance still remains a major obstacle in the standard chemotherapeutic approach in late-stage and metastatic testicular germ cell cancer (GCC) patients. This multifactorial and complex phenomenon arises (concomitantly) on several levels due to impaired transport, decreased adduct formation, increased DNA-repair, decreased apoptosis, or compensating pathways. Evaluation of novel therapeutic approaches and pharmacological inhibitors still remains necessary to treat cisplatin-resistant GCCs. In this chapter, we present in vitro techniques to measure cytotoxic impacts of chemotherapeutic drugs on GCC cell lines. Specifically, we will discuss the measurement of relative cell viability by XTT assay, as well as cell cycle distribution and apoptosis assay by Nicoletti- and Annexin V/PI apoptosis assay with subsequent flow cytometry, respectively, to evaluate the effects of cytotoxic treatment in GCC cell lines.
