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

The most effective anticancer drugs currently entail substantial and formidable side effects, and resistance of tumors to chemotherapeutic agents is a further challenge. Thus, the search for new anticancer drugs as well as novel therapeutic methods is still extremely important. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can inhibit COX (cyclooxygenase), overexpressed in some tumors. Carboranes are emerging as promising pharmacophores. We have therefore combined both moieties in a single molecule to design drugs with a dual mode of action and enhanced effectiveness. The NSAIDs ibuprofen, flurbiprofen, and fenoprofen were connected with 1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaborane(12) via methylene, ethylene or propylene spacers. Three sets of carborane-NSAID conjugates were synthesized and analyzed through multinuclear (
