Terpenoids: Emerging Natural Modulators for Reversing ABC Transporter-Mediated Multidrug Resistance in Cancer Chemotherapy.
Review in Pharmaceuticals (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a central cause of chemotherapy failure and tumor recurrence and metastasis, and its mechanism involves enhanced drug efflux, target mutation, upregulation of DNA repair and remodeling of the tumor microenvironment. ABC transporter protein (P-gp, MRP, and BCRP)-mediated efflux of drugs is the most intensively researched aspect of the study, but the first three generations of small-molecule reversal agents were stopped in the clinic because of toxicity or pharmacokinetic defects. Natural products are considered as the fourth generation of MDR reversal agents due to their structural diversity, multi-targeting and low toxicity. In this paper, we systematically summarize the inhibitory activities of monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes, diterpenes and triterpenes against ABC transporter proteins in in vitro and in vivo models and focus on the new mechanism of reversing drug resistance by blocking efflux pumps, modulating signaling pathways such as PI3K-AKT, Nrf2, NF-
