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
introductionMaintaining protein homeostasis is vital for multiple myeloma (MM) cell survival. Indirubin- 3-monoxime (I3MO), a potential MM therapeutic, inhibits proteasome activity, while histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) regulates autophagy. We developed I3MV- 8b, an I3MO derivative, integrating an HDAC6 inhibitor moiety to enhance dual inhibition of proteasome and autophagy pathways.
methodsThe anti-MM effects of I3MV- 8b were tested in vitro and in vivo. To identify downstream targets, RNA-seq and dual-luciferase reporter assays were performed. Additionally, ChIP-seq and IP-MS techniques were employed to elucidate the underlying molecular mechanism.
resultsI3MV- 8b significantly suppressed MM cell proliferation and induced apoptosis. Combined with proteasome inhibitors, I3MV- 8b enhanced cytotoxicity by concurrently inhibiting proteasome and autophagy pathways. It reduced TRIM28 transcription, correlating with lower expression of proteasome subunits and autophagy-related genes. ChIP-seq revealed that TRIM28 binds to proteasome gene promoters, and its knockdown decreased proteasome subunit expression and activity. TRIM28 knockdown also impaired autophagosome formation. IP-MS and Co-IP assays showed TRIM28 interacted with 14-3 - 3ζ, a negative regulator of autophagy, promoting its ubiquitination and degradation. This interaction reduced autophagy regulation, further sensitizing cells to treatment.
conclusionsI3MV- 8b offers a novel dual inhibition strategy targeting proteasome and autophagy, presenting a promising therapeutic option for MM.
