Effective Targeting of Melanoma Cells by Combination of Mcl-1 and Bcl-2/Bcl-x
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 4 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
Recent advances in melanoma therapy have significantly improved the prognosis of metastasized melanoma. However, large therapeutic gaps remain that need to be closed by new strategies. Antiapoptotic Bcl-2 proteins critically contribute to apoptosis deficiency and therapy resistance. They can be targeted by BH3 mimetics, small molecule antagonists that mimic the Bcl-2 homology domain 3 (BH3) of proapoptotic BH3-only proteins. By applying in vitro experiments, we aimed to obtain an overview of the possible suitability of BH3 mimetics for future melanoma therapy. Thus, we investigated the effects of ABT-737 and ABT-263, which target Bcl-2, Bcl-x
