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
The purpose of this study was to identify the role of HOXB9 and associated molecular mechanism in acquiring chemoresistance to ovarian cancer cells. After establishing HOXB9-overexpressing cells (HOXB9-OE/SKOV3), cisplatin resistance-induced cells (Cis-R/SKOV3), and an ovarian cancer xenograft mouse model, the effects of HOXB9 were evaluated in vitro and in vivo. Expression levels of ERCC-1, MRP-2, XIAP, and Bax/Bcl-2 were assessed as putative mechanisms mediating chemoresistance. Cisplatin-induced apoptosis was significantly decreased in HOXB9-OE/SKOV3 compared to SKOV3. Cisplatin treatment of SKOV3 strongly induced ERCC-1, MRP-2, and XIAP, and apoptosis was strongly induced through the inhibition of Bcl-2 and activation of Bax. ERCC-1, MRP-2, XIAP, and Bcl-2 were also strongly induced in HOXB9 OE/SKOV3. In contrast to SKOV3, cisplatin treatment alone of HOXB9 OE/SKOV3 did not affect the expression of Bcl-2 and Bax, and consequently, there was no increase in apoptosis. HOXB9 knockdown suppressed the expression of ERCC-1 and XIAP, but did not affect MRP-2 and Bcl-2/Bax expression in HOXB9 OE/SKOV3 and Cis-R/SKOV3, and caused a small increase in apoptosis. Treatment of SKOV3 with both cisplatin and siRNA_HOXB9 led to complete suppression of ERCC-1, MRP-2, and XIAP, and significantly increased apoptosis through inhibition of Bcl-2 expression and activation of Bax. The results observed in Cis-R/SKOV3 were similar to that in HOXB9 OE/SKOV3. Our data suggest that HOXB9 overexpression may cause chemoresistance in ovarian cancer cells by differential induction of ERCC-1, MRP-2, and XIAP depending on the strength of HOXB9 expression through inhibition of the mitochondrial pathway of apoptosis, including Bax/Bcl-2.
