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

Chemotherapy is the most common therapeutic strategy used to treat osteosarcoma. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of functionally activated chloride channels on cisplatin‑induced apoptosis of MG‑63 human osteosarcoma cells. An MTT assay and flow cytometry were used to detect proliferation and apoptosis of the cells, respectively. Live cell imaging was used to detect volume changes in response to treatment with cisplatin and/or chloride channel blockers. The effects of these treatments on chloride currents were also assayed using the patch‑clamp technique. The results of the present study indicate that chloride channel blockers may suppress cisplatin‑induced apoptosis. The MG‑63 cells cultured with cisplatin demonstrated an apoptotic volume decrease, as well as suppression of cell proliferation; which were reversed by co‑treatment with chloride channel blockers. These results suggest that cisplatin may activate chloride channels, and that channel activation is an early signal in the pathways that lead to cisplatin‑induced apoptosis and inhibition of proliferation in MG‑63 cells. In conclusion, these results indicate that chloride channels have an important role in cisplatin treatment of osteosarcoma.
