Macrophages and Urokinase Plasminogen Activator Receptor System in Multiple Myeloma: Case Series and Literature Review.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 microenvironment plays an essential role in multiple myeloma (MM) development, progression, cell proliferation, survival, immunological escape, and drug resistance. Mesenchymal stromal cells and macrophages release tolerogenic cytokines and favor anti-apoptotic signaling pathway activation, while the urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) system contributes to migration through an extracellular matrix. Here, we first summarized the role of macrophages and the uPAR system in MM pathogenesis, and then we reported the potential therapeutic effects of uPAR inhibitors in a case series of primary MM-derived adherent cells. Our preliminary results showed that after uPAR inhibitor treatments, interleukein-6 (mean ± SD, 8734.95 ± 4169.2 pg/mL vs. 359.26 ± 393.8 pg/mL, pre- vs. post-treatment;
