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

Oxaliplatin is an integral component of colorectal cancer therapy, but its clinical use is associated with a dose-limiting peripheral neurotoxicity. We found that the organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2) is expressed on dorsal root ganglia cells within the nervous system where oxaliplatin is known to accumulate. Cellular uptake of oxaliplatin was increased by 16- to 35-fold in cells overexpressing mouse Oct2 or human OCT2, and this process was associated with increased DNA platination and oxaliplatin-induced cytotoxicity. Furthermore, genetic or pharmacologic knockout of Oct2 protected mice from hypersensitivity to cold or mechanical-induced allodynia, which are established tests to assess acute oxaliplatin-induced neurotoxicity. These findings provide a rationale for the development of targeted approaches to mitigate this debilitating toxicity.
