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

The Notch1-mediated signaling pathway has a central role in the maintenance of neural stem cells and contributes to growth and progression of glioblastomas, the most frequent malignant brain tumors in adults. Here, we demonstrate that the Notch1 receptor promotes survival of glioblastoma cells by regulation of the anti-apoptotic Mcl-1 protein. Notch1-dependent regulation of Mcl-1 occurs cell type dependent at a transcriptional or post-translational level and is mediated by the induction of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Inhibition of the Notch1 pathway overcomes apoptosis resistance and sensitizes glioblastoma cells to apoptosis induced by ionizing radiation, the death ligand TRAIL (tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand) or the Bcl-2/Bcl-XL inhibitor ABT-737. In conclusion, targeting Notch1 might represent a promising novel strategy in the treatment of glioblastomas.
