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
With the increase of chemotherapy frequency for breast cancer, the drug resistance rate of patients is rising, accompanied by cell invasion and metastasis, thus causing mortality. We aimed to explore the mechanism by which Platycodon grandiflorus affects breast cancer cells in terms of the doxorubicin (Dox) resistance and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) via the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) signaling pathway. MCF-7/R cell lines with resistance to Dox were established. After 24 h of culture with DMEM (blank group), they were divided into Platycodon grandiflorus, Platycodon grandiflorus + Ophiopogon japonicus, Platycodon grandiflorus + Curcumae Rhizoma, Platycodon grandiflorus + Curcumae Rhizoma + U46619 groups. Flow cytometry, colony formation assay, as well as Transwell assay were performed to examine the cells for apoptosis, proliferation, and invasion, respectively. Western blotting was performed to measure the phosphorylated (p)-p38 MAPK-to-p38 MAPK ratio together with N-cadherin, vimentin, β-catenin, and E-cadherin protein expressions. Compared with the blank group, the half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC
