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
Proteasome inhibitors (PIs), such as bortezomib and calfizomib, were backbone agents in the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM). In this study, we investigated bortezomib interactors in MM cells and identified dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (DLD) as a molecular target of bortezomib. DLD catalyzes the oxidation of dihydrolipoamide to form lipoamide, a reaction that also generates NADH. Our data showed that bortezomib bound to DLD and inhibited DLD's enzymatic function in MM cells. DLD knocked down MM cells (DLD-KD) had decreased levels of NADH. Reduced NADH suppressed assembly of proteasome complex in cells. As a result, DLD-KD MM cells had decreased basal-level proteasome activity and were more sensitive to bortezomib. Since PIs were used in many anti-MM regimens in clinics, we found that high expression of DLD correlated with inferior prognosis of MM. Considering the regulatory role of DLD in proteasome assembly, we evaluated DLD targeting therapy in MM cells. DLD inhibitor CPI-613 showed a synergistic anti-MM effect with bortezomib in vitro and in vivo. Overall, our findings elucidated DLD as an alternative molecular target of bortezomib in MM. DLD-targeting might increase MM sensitivity to PIs.
