Effect of a chemical inhibitor of human phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein 4 on radiosensitivity of rectal cancer cells.
Article in World journal of surgical oncology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundHuman phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein 4 (hPEBP4) is a well-established antiapoptosis molecule in recent years. It has also been demonstrated to be involved in the radioresistance of rectal cancer. The objective of this study was to determine whether IOI-42, a chemical inhibitor of hPEBP4, could sensitize rectal cancer cells.
methodsRectal cancer cells were treated with IOI-42 alone or in combination with irradiation. Clonogenic survival assays and tumor volume growth analysis were used, respectively, to study the effect of IOI-42 in vitro and in vivo. Western blot was adopted to measure the activation of signal pathway.
resultsClonogenic survival assays showed that IOI-42, combined with irradiation, caused a significant decrease in colony formation compared with radiation alone, which was associated with the downregulation of Akt activation. And we also confirmed the effect of IOI-42 in nude mice transplanted with human rectal cancer subcutaneously.
conclusionsThese data suggest that IOI-42 has a potential to enhance the radiosensitivity of rectal cancer cells, providing a rationale to further investigate the feasibility of combining of IOI-42 with radiation, keeping in mind that this may result in unexpected toxicities.
