Ku-DNA binding inhibitors modulate the DNA damage response in response to DNA double-strand breaks.
Article in NAR cancer, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
The DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) plays a critical role in the DNA damage response (DDR) and non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) double-strand break (DSB) repair pathways. Consequently, DNA-PK is a validated therapeutic target for cancer treatment in certain DNA repair-deficient cancers and in combination with ionizing radiation (IR). We have previously reported the discovery and development of a novel class of DNA-PK inhibitors with a unique mechanism of action, blocking the Ku 70/80 heterodimer interaction with DNA. These Ku-DNA binding inhibitors (Ku-DBi's) display nanomolar activity
