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

Breast cancer (BC) remains the most diagnosed malignancy among women worldwide, with approximately 2.3 million new cases and over 670,000 deaths reported annually. Resistance to conventional chemotherapeutic agents and treatment-related toxicity remain major challenges in BC management. Resveratrol, a naturally occurring polyphenol, has been proposed as a potential modulator of chemotherapy response; however, comparative evidence regarding its interaction with different classes of chemotherapeutic agents is limited. This study aimed to comparatively assess the effects of resveratrol on the cytotoxic, antiproliferative, and apoptotic responses induced by adriamycin, taxol, and cisplatin in MCF-7 BC cells. MCF-7 cells were treated with adriamycin, taxol, cisplatin, and resveratrol, either alone or in combination, across multiple concentrations for 24, 48, 72, and 96 h. Cell viability was evaluated using the trypan blue exclusion assay. Cellular proliferation was assessed via BrdU incorporation, while apoptosis and cell death profiles were analyzed using Annexin V staining and flow cytometry. Exposure to individual chemotherapeutic agents induced a significant time- and dose-dependent reduction in MCF-7 cell viability (
