1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Bladder cancer (BC) is the tenth most common cancer, and its incidence is steadily rising worldwide, with the highest rates in developed countries. Neoadjuvant cisplatin-based chemotherapy followed by radical cystectomy is the standard therapy for patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer. However, less than 50% of patients initially respond to this treatment and nearly all of them eventually develop resistance, which is an important barrier to long-term survival. Therefore, there is an urgent need to understand the mechanisms of cisplatin resistance in BC and develop ways to counteract them. Several preclinical studies have demonstrated that naturally derived bioactive compounds, such as phytochemicals and flavonoids, can enhance the antitumor activity of cisplatin, with minimal side effects, by targeting different pathways involved in cisplatin sensitivity and resistance. However, their poor bioavailability has been one of the main problems for their successful introduction into clinical practice. At present, however, many new formulations with greatly increased bioavailability are under study in several clinical trials with encouraging results.
