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
Drug resistance is one of the major obstacles to the clinical use of doxorubicin, an extensively used chemotherapeutic drug to treat various cancers, including leukemia. Inhibition of the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) seems a promising strategy to reverse chemoresistance in cancer cells. NRF2 is a transcription factor that regulates both antioxidant defense and drug detoxification mechanisms. In this study, we investigated the potential of three inhibitors of NRF2-K67, retinoic acid and ML-385-to overcome doxorubicin resistance in promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 cells. For this purpose, low-dose doxorubicin was used to establish doxorubicin-resistant HL-60/DR cells. The expression of NRF2 and its main repressor, Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (KEAP1), at mRNA and protein levels was examined. HL-60/DR cells overexpressed NRF2 at mRNA and protein levels and down-regulated KEAP1 protein compared to drug-sensitive HL-60 cells. The effects of NRF2 inhibitors on doxorubicin-resistant HL-60/DR cell viability, apoptosis, and intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels were analyzed. We observed that NRF2 inhibitors significantly sensitized doxorubicin-resistant HL-60/DR cells to doxorubicin, which was associated with increased intracellular ROS levels and the expression of
