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

ABT-737 is a promising chemotherapeutic agent that promotes apoptosis by acting as a selective BH3 mimetic to neutralize Bcl-2-like family members. One shortcoming with its use is that Mcl-1, a member of the Bcl-2 family, is poorly inhibited by ABT-737 and thus is a major cause of resistance. We performed a short hairpin RNA (shRNA)-based drop-out screen to identify novel genes and pathways that could reverse resistance to ABT-737 treatment in Eµ-myc/Bcl-2 lymphoma cells engineered to rely on endogenous Mcl-1 for survival. Several drug-sensitive shRNAs were identified that were selectively depleted in the presence of ABT-737. Of these, 2 independent shRNAs targeting the RNA/DNA helicase Dhx9 were found to sensitize lymphomas to ABT-737 to an extent comparable to control Mcl-1 shRNAs. Although Dhx9 suppression sensitized both mouse and human cells to ABT-737 treatment, it did so without altering MCL-1 levels. Rather, loss of Dhx9 appeared to activate a p53-dependent apoptotic program, through aggravation of replicative stress, which was found to be both necessary and sufficient for the ABT-737-shDhx9 synthetic lethal relationship.
