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

Arsenic trioxide (ATO) and proteasome inhibitor bortezomib have been successfully applied to treat acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) and multiple myeloma (MM), respectively. Their synergistic effects with other anticancer drugs have been widely studied. Here, we investigated the potential synergy of bortezomib and ATO on Bcr-Abl(+) leukemic K562 cells. The results showed that cotreatment of bortezomib at 32 nM, a half concentration for growth arrest, and ATO at 1 microM, a dose with no significant cytotoxic effect, synergistically induced apoptosis in the cell line, followed by enhanced mitochondrial dysfunction, release of cytochrome c and apoptosis-inducing factor, caspase-3 cleavage and degradation of poly-adenosine diphosphate-ribose polymerase together with the decreased Bcr-Abl protein. These two drugs synergistically induced proteolytic activation of protein kinase Cdelta (PKCdelta) with enhanced activation of two mitogen-activated protein kinases phospho-c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase and p38. The specific PKCdelta inhibitor rottlerin markedly decreased bortezomib plus ATO-induced apoptosis, suggesting that PKCdelta plays an important role in bortezomib plus ATO-induced apoptosis. Moreover, apoptosis synergy of bortezomib and ATO could also be seen in some kinds of acute leukemic cell lines and primary cells. Totally, our results indicate that combined regimen of bortezomib and ATO might be a potential therapeutic remedy for the treatment of leukemia.
