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
Para-coumaric acid (p-CA) is a phenolic compound that has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties which make it potential for cancer treatment. However, its effectiveness has been limited by poor solubility, rapid metabolism, and poor absorptivity. Nonthermal biocompatible pressure plasma (NBP) has gained attention as a cancer treatment due to its ability to generate reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS), inducing oxidative stress that damages cancer cells. This study aimed to investigate the combined effect of NBP and p-CA on the induction of ferroptosis in lung adenocarcinoma via the GPX4, xCT, and NRF2 pathways. H460 and A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells as well as normal lung cells (MRC5) were treated with p-CA, NBP, and their combination. Cell movement, intracellular RONS levels, and lipid peroxidation, along with apoptosis and ferroptosis-related gene expression, were evaluated by co-treatment. Co-treatment also significantly elevated NO
