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
BRG1 and BRM are subunits of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodelling complex, which has DNA-stimulated ATPase activity and can destabilise histone-DNA interactions. Targeting SWI/SNF is beneficial for treating various tumours, including glioblastoma (GBM). Our research focussed on BRG1 due to its overexpression in GBM. We developed IV-255, a selective bromodomain (BRD) inhibitor that binds to BRG1 but not BRM. IV-255 sensitised GBM cells to temozolomide (TMZ), the standard GBM treatment. We identified the binding site of IV-255 within the BRG1 BRD and found that the Tyr1497 residue is crucial for IV-255's effect on TMZ-induced GBM cell death, while Asn1540 is not. Structural analyses confirmed that Tyr1497 is involved in the IV-255 binding pocket. Mechanistically, IV-255 increases γH2AX staining in GBM cell nuclei in response to TMZ, indicating an impaired DNA double-strand break response dependent on Tyr1497. IV-255 also sensitised GBM cells to TMZ-induced apoptosis, as shown by PARP and caspase-3 cleavage, which also requires Tyr1497. In conclusion, Tyr1497 within the BRD of BRG1 is critical for its interaction with IV-255 and for sensitising GBM cells to TMZ-induced DNA double-strand breaks and apoptotic cell death.
