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
Cisplatin (CDDP) stands out as an effective chemotherapeutic agent; however, its application is linked to the development of significant adverse effects, notably nephro- and ototoxicity. The human organic cation transporter 2 (hOCT2), found in abundance in the basolateral membrane domain of renal proximal tubules and the Corti organ, plays a crucial role in the initiation of nephro- and ototoxicity associated with CDDP by facilitating its uptake in kidney and ear cells. Given its limited presence in cancer cells, hOCT2 emerges as a potential druggable target for mitigating unwanted toxicities associated with CDDP. Potential strategies for mitigating CDDP toxicities include competing with the uptake of CDDP by hOCT2 or inhibiting hOCT2 activity through rapid regulation mediated by specific signaling pathways. This study investigated the interaction between the already approved cationic drugs disopyramide, imipramine, and orphenadrine with hOCT2 that is stably expressed in human embryonic kidney cells. Regarding disopyramide, its influence on CDDP cellular transport by hOCT2 was further characterized through inductively coupled plasma isotope dilution mass spectrometry. Additionally, its potential protective effects against cellular toxicity induced by CDDP were assessed using a cytotoxicity test. Given that hOCT2 is typically expressed in the basolateral membrane of polarized cells, with specific regulatory mechanisms, this work studied the regulation of hOCT2 that is stably expressed in Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cells. These cells were cultured in a matrix to induce the formation of cysts, exposing hOCT2 in the basolateral plasma membrane domain, which was freely accessible to experimental solutions. The study specifically tested the regulation of ASP
