Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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/
aimTo determine the interaction of gemcitabine in chemoradiotherapy with heavy carbon ions in vitro in a mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) cell line. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe human lymphatic MEC metastasis cell line NCI-H292 was used. The cells were treated with photons, carbon ions, and gemcitabine. Survival fractions (SF), apoptosis, and cell cycle progression were analyzed. A paired two-sided t-test was used. Significance was defined as p<0.05.
resultsCell proliferation assays showed a significant reduction in SF for combined photon chemoradiation versus photons only. The linear-quadratic fits of combined therapy with carbon ion dose of 0 to 2.5 Gy led to reductions of mean 15% in SF. The LD
conclusionGemcitabine showed radiosensitizing effects in combination with photons. The combination of gemcitabine and carbon ions had independent additive effects. Carbon ions only had a RBE10 of 3.0, compared to photons only. The combination of gemcitabine, photon, and carbon ions in patients with MEC seems promising and warrants further investigation.
