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

1,1-Bis(3'-indolyl)-1-(3,5-disubstitutedphenyl)methane (DIM-3,5) compounds in the presence or absence of a 4-hydroxylphenyl group bind both orphan nuclear receptor 4A1 (NR4A1) and NR4A2. In cancer cells, these compounds bind and inactivate pro-oncogenic NR4A1 and NR4A2 and downstream pathways acting as inverse agonists that inhibit cancer cell growth, survival, migration and invasion, and induce ferroptosis. Similar results are observed in endometriotic cells where the DIM-3,5 dual NR4A1/2 ligands inhibit NR4A1/NR4A2-mediated pro-endometriotic genes and pathways. The potency of these DIM-3,5 dual NR4A1/NR4A2 ligands is also observed in tumor infiltrating lymphocytes where both receptors are expressed and regulate comparable functions.
