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

Following the publication of this paper, it was drawn to the Editor's attention by a concerned reader that certain of the flow cytometric data shown in Fig. 3 on p. 385 were strikingly similar to data which had been already been submitted for publication to several other journals that were written by different authors at different research institutes. In addition, overlapping data panels were noted with the EdU assay experiments in Fig. 2C, with the scratch‑wound assay experiments in Fig. 10A, and with the cell invasion assay experiments in Fig. 10B, and the Rab10 western blot data in Fig. 9B for the EC109 cell line were strikingly similar to data that appeared in another journal by different authors at different research institutes. Owing to the fact that the contentious flow cytometric and western blot data in the above article were found to be strikingly similar to data that had already been submitted for publication elsewhere, the Editor of
