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
Growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) antagonists exert antitumor functions in different experimental cancers. However, their role in combination with radiotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains unknown. Therefore, we investigated the radiosensitizing effect of GHRH antagonists in NSCLC. A549 and H522 NSCLC cell lines were exposed to ionizing radiation (IR) and GHRH antagonists MIA-602 and MIA-690, either individually or in combination. Cell viability and proliferation were evaluated by MTT, BrdU, flow cytofluorimetry, and clonogenic assays; gene and protein expression, signaling pathways, and apoptosis were analyzed by real-time PCR, Western blot, annexin staining, and caspase-3 assay. GHRH antagonists showed antitumor effects alone and potentiated IR-induced inhibition of cell viability and proliferation. The combination of MIA-690 and IR decreased the expression of GHRH receptor, its oncogenic splice variant 1, and IGF1 mRNA levels. Additionally, cell cycle inhibitors and proapoptotic markers were upregulated, whereas cyclins, oncogenic
