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

We have previously reported that arsenic trioxide (ATO) could inhibit glioma growth both in vitro and in vivo, and demonstrated its potent therapeutic effects on gliomas. In this study we showed that ATO induced cell damage and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) expression in glioma cells via ROS generation. HO-1 inducer clearly protected from ATO-induced cell death and ROS generation, and HO-1 inhibitor led to a significant increase in cell death and ROS generation induced by ATO. In addition, knockdown of nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (Nrf2) strongly inhibited HO-1 expression induced by ATO, and significantly enhanced ATO-induced oxidative damage. Our results demonstrated, for the first time, that HO-1 inhibition or Nrf2 knockdown significantly potentiated ATO's effects on glioma cells. Considering that HO-1 is highly expressed in glioma tissues, administration of ATO in combination with either HO-1 inhibitor or Nrf2 knockdown may act as a new approach to the treatment of glioma.
