A possible link to uracil DNA glycosylase in the synergistic action of HDAC inhibitors and thymidylate synthase inhibitors.
Article in Journal of translational medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
It is well established that thymidylate synthase inhibitors can cause cellular toxicity through uracil DNA glycosylase (UNG2)-dependent pathways. Additionally, thymidylate synthase inhibitors and HDAC inhibitors are known to act synergistically in a variety of cancer types. A recent article from J. Transl. Med. links these together by demonstrating widespread depletion of UNG2 levels across a variety of cell lines treated with HDAC inhibitors. Recent findings suggest that UNG2 depletion by HDAC inhibitors would likely be an effective method to sensitize cells to thymidylate synthase inhibitors. This is particularly important for cancer types that are typically resistant to thymidylate synthase inhibitors, such as cells that are deficient in p53 activity.
