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

In order to improve therapeutic efficacy, it is a current emergency to better know the mechanisms underlying cisplatin resistance in lung cancer cells. In this study, we aim to investigate the role of Krüppel-like factor 4 (KLF4) in cisplatin-resistant lung cancer cells. We developed cisplatin-resistant lung cancer cell line A549/DDP, and then a battery of experiments was used to analyze the effects of KLF4 in cisplatin resistance of lung cancer. We found that KLF4 was significantly downregulated in cisplatin-resistant A549 cells and forced KLF4 expression inhibited cell growth and induced apoptosis. Further, we found that overexpression of KLF4 was able to inhibit cell migration and invasion, to inhibit the expression of Slug, Twist, and vimentin, and to increase the expression of E-cadherin and subsequent inhibition of the EMT process. Thus, overexpression of KLF4 may be a potential strategy for lung cancer treatment, especially for cisplatin-resistant cases.
