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

Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) has emerged as a new potential therapeutic target for gastric cancer. However, a phase III clinical trial found that monotherapy with the mTOR inhibitor everolimus did not significantly improve the overall survival of patients with advanced gastric cancer. This has led to the exploration of more effective combinatorial regimens to enhance the effectiveness of mTOR inhibitors. Here, we demonstrate that Akt phosphorylation is increased in the rapamycin-resistant gastric cancer cell lines MGC803 and SGC7901. We further show that combined treatment with celecoxib and rapamycin results in an additive inhibitory effect on the growth of gastric cancer cells through suppression of rapamycin-induced Akt activation. Moreover, celecoxib upregulated the expression of the ubiquitin ligase casitas B-lineage lymphoma-b (Cbl-b). Knockdown of Cbl-b significantly attenuated celecoxib-mediated inhibition of Akt phosphorylation and impaired the additive anticancer effect of celecoxib and rapamycin. Our results suggest that celecoxib-mediated upregulation of Cbl-b is responsible, at least in part, for the additive antitumor effect of celecoxib and rapamycin via inhibition of rapamycin-induced Akt activation.
