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

Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) have been studied as they provide an efficient strategy for the intracellular delivery of bioactive molecules in various biomedical applications such as cancer diagnosis and therapy. We have developed an anionic CPP, p28, that can preferentially enter cancer cells and induce cell cycle arrest and apoptotic cell death preclinically and that showed preliminary efficacy in humans. Yet, the underlying intracellular fate after cell entry remains largely uncharacterized. To better understand the intracellular trafficking of p28, we investigated more closely the role of endosomal acidification and retrograde transport in cancer cells. Here, we show that agents such as chloroquine (CQ), NH
