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

backgroundTargeting of Notch signaling with γ-secretase inhibitors (GSIs) has been considered a promising strategy for the treatment of hematological malignancies including multiple myeloma (MM). Here we investigated whether the cytotoxic effect of bortezomib, an agent commonly used in MM, could be enhanced by the addition of a GSI.

methodsMM cells were treated with GSI, bortezomib or the combination thereof. Apoptosis of MM cells, proteasome activity and Notch signaling activation were determined. The effect of the drug combination was also evaluated in MM cells transfected with the active domain of Notch-1.

resultsUsing MM cell lines and primary MM cells isolated from the bone marrow of patients with MM we found a strong synergistic effect of bortezomib in combination with one of the GSIs studied. We next investigated the mechanism underlying this synergistic effect and determined that the effect of the drug combination was mainly dependent on the ability of the selected GSI to inhibit proteasome activity in MM cells.

conclusionOur study demonstrates that selected GSIs that inhibit proteasome activity may be successfully used in combination with bortezomib enhancing its anti-MM effect.
