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

Comprehensive treatment based on chemotherapy is regarded as the first-line treatment for patients with unresectable or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). However, chemoresistance is common among patients with ESCC. Therefore, there is a need to explore new therapeutic strategies or adjuvant drugs. One promising possibility is to use dietary agents that can increase tumor cell sensitivity to drugs. In this study, we initially investigated the antitumor activity of proteasome inhibitor MG132 in vitro and in vivo. Effects of MG132 on the enhancment of the anticancer functions of cisplatin were then investigated in human esophageal cancer EC9706 cells in relation to apoptosis and cell signaling events. Exposure of cells to MG132 resulted in a marked decrease in cell viability in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Administration of MG132 markedly inhibited tumor growth in the EC9706 xenograft model. MG132 significantly enhanced cisplatin-induced apoptosis in association with the activation of caspase-3 and -8. These events were accompanied by the downregulation of NF-κB, which plays a key role in cell apoptosis. Taken together, these findings demonstrate a novel mechanism by which proteasome inhibitor MG132 potentiates cisplatin-induced apoptosis in human ESCC and inhibitory activity of tumor growth of the EC9706 xenograft model.
