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
This study analyses the production of tumour necrosis factor (TNF)alpha and soluble TNF receptor (sTNF-R) before and after exposure to gamma irradiation and interferon gamma (IFN gamma) in 12 cell lines derived from Ewing's sarcoma (ES)/peripheral primitive neuroectodermal tumours (pPNET). Supernatants from ES/pPNET cell cultures were tested in a TNF alpha-specific amplified enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), a bioassay, and sTNF-Rp55 and sTNF-Rp75 ELISA. The tumour cell lines released minimal amounts of TNF alpha, prominent amounts of sTNF-Rp55 (7/12 cell lines) and no sTNF-Rp75. Exposure to gamma irradiation (5 Gy) either induced (3/12) cell lines) or up-regulated (3/12 cell lines) TNF alpha release without changing sTNF-Rp55 and sTNF-Rp75 levels. Priming of cultures with recombinant human IFN gamma (rhIFN gamma) markedly enhanced TNF alpha secretion in the radiation-responsive cell lines and had no influence on sTNF-Rp55 and sTNF-Rp75 levels. rhIFN gamma affected the magnitude rather than the sensitivity of the radiation response. The TNF alpha secreted was bioactive, as shown by its cytotoxic effect of WEHI-164 cells, and neutralization of its activity by anti-TNF alpha monoclonal antibody. Herbimycin A (a tyrosine-specific protein kinase inhibitor) but not calphostin C (a protein kinase C inhibitor), H89 (a protein kinase A inhibitor), AA-COCF3 (a specific inhibitor of phospholipase A2) and MK-886 (a specific inhibitor of 5-lipoxygenase) abrogated gamma-irradiation-stimulated TNF alpha release. The antioxidants N-acetylcysteine, nordihydroguaiaretic acid and mepacrine dose-dependently inhibited gamma-irradiation-mediated TNF alpha production. Collectively our findings indicate that IFN gamma priming potentiates the secretion of bioactive TNF alpha by ES/pPNET cells in response to gamma irradiation without affecting sTNF-R release. The data suggest a requirement for protein tyrosine kinase activity and a role for reactive oxygen species in the gamma-irradiation-mediated intracellular signalling pathway leading to TNF alpha production.
