Investigation of the TLR4 and IRF3 signaling pathway-mediated effects of monensin in colorectal cancer cells.
Article in Medical oncology (Northwood, London, England), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Monensin is an ionophore antibiotic isolated from Streptomyces cinnamonensis with very strong antibacterial and antiparasitic effects. Although monensin is known to exhibit anticancer activity in different cancer types, there are a very limited number of studies on its anti-inflammatory effects in colorectal cancer (CRC) cells. The aim of this study was to investigate the TLR4/IRF3-mediated antiproliferative and anti-inflammatory effects of monensin in colorectal cancer cells. The dose- and time-dependent antiproliferative activity of monensin in colorectal cancer cells was determined by XTT method and its effects on mRNA expression changes of Toll-like receptors and IRF3 genes were determined by RT-PCR. TLR4 and Interferon Regulatory Factor 3 (IRF3) protein expression was evaluated by immunofluorescence method. TLR4 and type 1 interferon (IRF) levels were also evaluated by ELISA. IC
