Evidence for Bell-Shaped Dose-Response Emetic Effects of Temsirolimus and Analogs: The Broad-Spectrum Antiemetic Efficacy of a Large Dose of Temsirolimus Against Diverse Emetogens in the Least Shrew (
Article in Frontiers in pharmacology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Temsirolimus is a prodrug form of sirolimus (rapamycin). With its analogs (everolimus, ridaforolimus, and rapamycin), it forms a group of anticancer agents that block the activity of one of the two mammalian targets of rapamycin (mTOR) complexes, mTORC1. We investigated the emetic potential of varying doses (0, 0.5, 1, 2.5, 5, 10, 20, and 40 mg/kg, i.p.) of temsirolimus in the least shrew. Temsirolimus caused a bell-shaped and dose-dependent increase in both the mean vomit frequency and the number of shrews vomiting with maximal efficacy at 10 mg/kg (
