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

Multidrug resistance (MDR) represents a major obstacle to successful chemotherapy and, due to overlapping defense mechanisms, such as enhanced DNA repair and the evasion of apoptosis, can also be associated with radioresistance. In this study, we investigated whether MDR breast cancer cells (MCF-7/CMF) exhibit reduced susceptibility to radiation-induced DNA fragmentation compared to their non-resistant parental counterpart (MCF-7). Using a nucleosome-based ELISA, we quantified the chromatin fragmentation in MCF-7 and MCF-7/CMF cells following their exposure to four radiopharmaceuticals: [
