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

objectiveThe aim of this study was to investigate the effect of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) on the human squamous cervical cancer using proteomics profiling and to obtain related proteins to NAC exposure and response.

methodsPaired samples of early-stage bulky squamous cervical cancer before and after NAC treatment from patients who responded to NAC were obtained and submitted to 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MS). The expression and localization of the interesting proteins in additional paired samples were confirmed by Western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry.

resultsThe comparison of the proteins present before and after NAC revealed that 116 protein spots were significantly changed. In all, 31 proteins were analyzed by MS, and 15 proteins were upregulated in the cancer tissue after NAC relative to the level before NAC, whereas 16 proteins were downregulated after NAC. The significantly higher expression of peroxiredoxin 1 and significantly lower expression of galectin 1 after NAC treatment were confirmed by Western blot.

conclusionsProteomics can be used to identify the NAC-related proteins in squamous cervical cancer. The change in proteins may be associated with NAC exposure and response, but insight into their relevance requires further study.
