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
Understanding the mechanisms underlying doxorubicin resistance in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) holds paramount clinical significance. In our study, we investigate the potential of STK32C, a little-explored kinase, to impact doxorubicin sensitivity in TNBC cells. Our findings reveal elevated STK32C expression in TNBC specimens, associated with unfavorable prognosis in doxorubicin-treated TNBC patients. Subsequent experiments highlighted that STK32C depletion significantly augmented the sensitivity of doxorubicin-resistant TNBC cells to doxorubicin. Mechanistically, we unveiled that the cytoplasmic subset of STK32C plays a pivotal role in mediating doxorubicin sensitivity, primarily through the regulation of glycolysis. Furthermore, the kinase activity of STK32C proved to be essential for its mediation of doxorubicin sensitivity, emphasizing its role as a kinase. Our study suggests that targeting STK32C may represent a novel therapeutic approach with the potential to improve doxorubicin's efficacy in TNBC treatment.
