1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Cervical cancer cases continue to rise despite all the advanced screening and preventative measures put in place, which include human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination. These soaring numbers can be attributed to the lack of effective anticancer drugs against cervical cancer; thus, repurposing the human immunodeficiency virus protease inhibitors is an attractive innovation. Therefore, this work was aimed at evaluating the potential anticancer activities of HIV-PIs against cervical cancer cells. The MTT viability assay was used to evaluate the effect of HIV protease inhibitors on the viability of cervical cancer cells (HeLa) and non-cancerous cells (HEK-293). Further confirmation of the MTT assay was performed by confirming the IC
