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

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) are aggressive malignancies characterized by uncontrolled tumor growth, high recurrence rates, and resistance to chemotherapy. OZ-001 is a small molecule with a dual mechanism of action targeting T-type Ca2+ channels and inhibiting activation of the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) protein. These properties suggest a potential use as a therapeutic agent for TNBC and PDAC, addressing the urgent need for effective treatments. This study evaluates the anticancer efficacy and underlying mechanism of action of OZ-001. The anticancer activities of OZ-001 were assessed in MDA-MB-231 cells (against TNBC) and MIA PaCa-2 cells (against PDAC) through analyses of cell viability, apoptosis, protein characterization, and cell cycles. Protein affinity and intracellular calcium measurements were conducted to investigate its effects on STAT3 and T-type calcium channels. Xenograft animal models were developed using MDA-MB-231 and MIA PaCa-2 cells to evaluate the
