PKC signal amplification suppresses non-small cell lung cancer growth by promoting p21 expression and phosphorylation.
Article in Heliyon, 2022. 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
Protein kinase C (PKC) activation was previously associated with oncogenic features. However, small molecule inhibitors targeting PKC have so far proved ineffective in a number of clinical trials for cancer treatment. Recent progresses have revealed that most PKC mutations detected in diverse cancers actually lead to loss-of-function, thus suggesting the tumor-suppressive roles of PKC proteins. Unfortunately, the development of chemicals to enhance PKC activity is lagging behind relative to its small molecular inhibitors. Here, we report that a bisindolylmaleimide derivative (3,4-bis(1-(prop-2-ynyl)-1
