G protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER) modulates epithelial-mesenchymal transition-like phenotype in human glioblastoma cells.

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
Glioblastomas (GBs) are the most frequent and aggressive central nervous system tumors, whose progression is influenced by sex hormones. 17β-estradiol (E2), promotes an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-like process and enhances proliferative, migratory, and invasive capacities in GB through intracellular estrogen receptors. However, the role of G protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER) in GB remains poorly understood. We evaluated the effects of E2, the GPER-agonist G-1, and the GPER-antagonist G-15 on EMT-related processes, migration, and invasion in U251 and U87 GB-derived cells. GPER activation by E2 and G-1 increased migration and invasion, whereas G-15, alone or combined, reduced these effects. GPER activation also induced a mesenchymal-like phenotype. These findings suggest that GPER-associated signaling contributes to EMT-like phenotypic changes, migration, and invasion in GB.
