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
Background: Ovarian cancer is a fatal gynecological malignancy. The resistance to chemotherapy in ovarian cancer treatment has been a thorny issue. This study is aimed at probing the molecular mechanism of cisplatin (DDP) resistance in ovarian cancer. Methods: Bioinformatics analysis was conducted to examine the role of Nod-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) in ovarian cancer. The NLRP3 level in DDP-resistant ovarian cancer tumors and cell lines (SKOV3/DDP and A2780/DDP) was evaluated by applying immunohistochemical staining, western blot, and qRT-PCR. Cell transfection was conducted to regulate the NLRP3 level. Cell abilities to proliferate, migrate, invade, and apoptosis were measured employing colony formation, CCK-8, wound healing, transwell, and TUNEL assays, respectively. Cell cycle analysis was completed via flow cytometry. Corresponding protein expression was measured by western blot. Results: NLRP3 was overexpressed in ovarian cancer, correlated with poor survival, and upregulated in DDP-resistant ovarian cancer tumors and cells. NLRP3 silencing exerted antiproliferative, antimigrative, anti-invasive, and proapoptotic effects in A2780/DDP and SKOV3/DDP cells. Additionally, NLRP3 silencing inactivated NLRPL3 inflammasome and blocked epithelial-mesenchymal transition via enhancing E-cadherin and lowering vimentin, N-cadherin, and fibronectin. Conclusion: NLRP3 was overexpressed in DDP-resistant ovarian cancer. NLRP3 knockdown hindered the malignant process of DDP-resistant ovarian cancer cells, providing a potential target for DPP-based ovarian cancer chemotherapy.
