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

This study sought to investigate the effect of overexpression of SMAR1 (scaffold/matrix-associated region-binding protein 1) on cell radiosensitivity in breast cancer, as well as elucidate its regulatory mechanism. We constructed a lentiviral expression system to successfully overexpress SMAR1 in human breast cancer cell line MCF7. In addition, overexpression of SMAR1 in MCF7 cells enhanced the radiosensitivity to (89)SrCl2. Moreover, overexpression of SMAR1 significantly induced cell apoptosis rate and G2/M phase arrest under the irradiation of (89)SrCl2. In addition, Western blot analysis showed that overexpression of SMAR1 in MCF cells significantly increased the expression levels of pP53 (ser15), pP53 (ser20), acP53, and p21 and obviously decreased the expression of MDM2 under the irradiation of (89)SrCl2. Notably, these expression changes could be neutralized by PFTα, an inhibitor of p53 signaling pathway that could inhibit p53-dependent transactivation of p53-responsive genes. Therefore, overexpression of SMAR1 may increase radiosensitivity to (89)SrCl2 in breast cancer cell line MCF7 by p53-dependent G2/M checkpoint arrest and apoptosis. Enhanced expression of SMAR1 in tumors will help to improve the clinical efficiency of radiation therapy.
