Mechanism of 5-fluorouracil induced resistance and role of piperine and curcumin as chemo-sensitizers in colon cancer.
Review in Naunyn-Schmiedeberg's archives of pharmacology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Among cancer-related deaths worldwide, colorectal cancer ranks second, accounting for 1.2% of deaths in those under 50 years and 0.6% of deaths in those between 50 and 54 years. The anticancer drug 5-fluorouracil is widely used to treat colorectal cancer. Due to a better understanding of the drug's mechanism of action, its anticancer activity has been increased through a variety of therapeutic alternatives. Clinical use of 5-FU has been severely restricted due to drug resistance. The chemoresistance mechanism of 5-FU is challenging to overcome because of the existence of several drug efflux transporters, DNA repair enzymes, signaling cascades, classical cellular processes, cancer stem cells, metastasis, and angiogenesis. Curcumin, a potent phytocompound derived from Curcuma longa, functions as a nuclear factor (NF)-κB inhibitor and sensitizer to numerous chemotherapeutic drugs. Piperine, an alkaloid found in Piper longum, inhibits cancer cell growth, causing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. This review explores the mechanism of 5-FU-induced chemoresistance in colon cancer cells and the role of curcumin and piperine in enhancing the sensitivity of 5-FU-based chemotherapy. CLINICAL
