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

The expression of taxol resistance gene 1 and thrombospondin 1 remains unknown in human breast cancer tissues. In the current study, we sought to measure the mRNA expression levels of taxol resistance gene 1 and thrombospondin 1 in breast cancer tissue and adjacent normal tissue specimens and further analyzed their expression according to the molecular subtypes and age of breast cancer patients who had received taxane-containing regimens. Archived breast cancer and adjacent non-tumor tissue specimens were obtained at Beijing Friendship Hospital, Beijing, China. The mRNA transcript levels of taxol resistance gene 1, thrombospondin 1 and multi-drug resistance 1 were determined by quantitative RT-PCR. Taxol resistance gene 1 and multi-drug resistance 1 protein levels were measured by immunoblotting assays. Forty-nine archived breast cancer tissue specimens were included. The majority of the specimens (65.3%) were of the molecular subtype A followed by triple negative breast cancer (14.3%). The mRNA transcript levels of taxol resistance gene 1 , thrombospondin 1 and multi-drug resistance 1 in breast cancer tissues were higher than those of adjacent normal tissues. The mRNA expression of TXR1 in the HER2 subtype (4.513 ± 0.810) was the highest and in the Luminal B subtype was the lowest (3.103 ± 0.417) among the four molecular subtypes. The HER2 subtype also had the highest mRNA expression of thrombospondin 1(4.827 ± 0.927) and the Luminal B subtype had the lowest TSP1 mRNA level (3.197 ± 0.565) among the four molecular subtypes. Our study represents the first attempt in delineating taxol resistance gene 1 and thrombospondin 1 expression in breast cancer and we demonstrate that taxol resistance gene 1 and thrombospondin 1 expression may vary according to the molecular subtypes of breast cancer.
