The influence of mtDNA deletion on lung cancer cells under the conditions of hypoxia and irradiation.
Article in Lung, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
purposeThis study was to evaluate the influence of mtDNA deletion on the lung cancer cells under the conditions of hypoxia or irradiation.
methodThe treatment conditions of lung cancer cell lines with (A549) and without mtDNA (ρ0A549: obtained by inducing from A549) included 2 h of hypoxia and 4 Gy irradiation (group 1: without treatment; group 2: 2 h of hypoxia; group 3: 4 Gy irradiation; group 4: 2 h of hypoxia plus 4 Gy irradiation). The Human OneArray™ microarray was used to hybridize with the Cy5-labeled aRNA in microarray sample preparation. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the lung cancer cells with and without mtDNA were identified using NOISeq package in R. Gene ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analyses were performed using the online tool of DAVID.
resultIn the KEGG pathway analysis of down-regulated DEGs, nineteen pathways were simultaneously enriched in the four groups, which were mainly metabolism- and biosynthesis-related pathways. Nine lung cancer-related pathways were enriched in group 4, and more cancer-associated DEGs, such as MYC, MAX, and E2F1 were found in group 4 than in the other groups.
conclusionThe mtDNA deletion could inhibit the biosynthesis and metabolism of lung cancer cells and promote the effect of hypoxia and radiation on lung cancer cells. MYC might be the key gene of the cooperation of hypoxia and radiation and MYC, MAX, and E2F1 might play roles in hypoxia- and radiation-induced cell death in lung cancer cells without mtDNA.
