Novel DNA Repair Inhibitors Targeting XPG to Enhance Cisplatin Therapy in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: Insights from In Silico and Cell-Based Studies.
Article in Cancers, 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
NSCLC is marked by low survival and resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy. The XPG endonuclease has emerged as a promising biomarker for predicting the prognosis of cisplatin-treated patients and its downregulation having been reported to increase cisplatin efficacy. This study presents an integrated strategy for identifying small molecule inhibitors of XPG to improve cisplatin therapy in NSCLC. A structure-based virtual screening approach was adopted, including a structural and physicochemical analysis of the protein, and a library of small molecules with reported inhibitory activities was retrieved. This analysis identified Lys84 as a crucial residue for XPG activity by targeting its interaction with DNA. After molecular docking and virtual screening calculations, 61 small molecules were selected as potential XPG inhibitors, acquired from the ChemBridge database and then validated in H1299 cells, a NSCLC cell line exhibiting the highest
