Synergistic Effect of MC-LR and C-Terminal Truncated HBx on HepG2 Cells and Their Effects on PP2A Mediated Downstream Target of MAPK Signaling Pathway.
Article in Frontiers in genetics, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
C-terminally truncated hepatitis B virus (HBV) X (ctHBx) infection and exposure to microcystins-LR (MC-LR) can lead to human hepatitis and liver cancer, but the mechanism associated with their synergistically effects not been fully elucidated. The ctHBx (HBxΔ4 and HBxΔ32) lentivirus were constructed and transfected into the HepG2 cells. Then we investigated the function of MC-LR and ctHBx using the molecular biology approaches, including enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, clone formation assay, scratch wound testing, transwell assays, carried out flow cytometry respectively to examine cell cycle and apoptosis in each group, and detected the related proteins of HBx, MEK/ERK/JNK/p38 in mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway and the downstream proteins such as cdc2, cdc25C, and p53 by western blotting. We found that the protein phosphorylase 2A (PP2A) enzyme activity in MC-LR and HBxΔ32/HBxΔ4 groups decreased more than in MC-LR and HBx group at the same time point and MC-LR concentration (
