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

Enzalutamide (Enz) is employed in the management of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). However, a substantial subset of patients may develop resistance to Enz, thereby reducing its therapeutic effectiveness. The underlying mechanisms contributing to the development of Enz resistance in PCa, whether arising from androgen deprivation or the burden of Enz treatment, remain inadequately understood. OPRK1 plays a key role in Enz resistance through ferroptosis inhibition, which is detected by the analysis of Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases. Silencing OPRK1 via small interfering RNA (siRNA) resulted in the activation of ferroptosis signaling in LNCaP cells. These findings indicate that OPRK1 significantly contributes to Enz resistance in PCa and may serve as a promising therapeutic target for resistant patients.
