Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Glioblastoma multiforme therapy remains a significant challenge since there is a lack of effective treatment for this cancer. As most of the examined gliomas express or overexpress cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors γ (PPARγ), we decided to use these proteins as therapeutic targets. Toxicity, antiproliferative, proapoptotic, and antimigratory activity of COX-2 inhibitor (celecoxib-CXB) and/or PPARγ agonist (Fmoc-L-Leucine-FL) was examined in vitro on temozolomide resistant U-118 MG glioma cell line and comparatively on BJ normal fibroblasts and immortalized HaCaT keratinocytes. The in vivo activity of both agents was studied on
