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

Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP-NEN) represent a rare and heterogenous tumor entity. Importantly, the highly proliferative subgroup of neuroendocrine carcinoma (GEP-NEC) is characterized by high resistance to conventional chemotherapy. Consequently, there is an urgent need to identify novel therapeutic targets, especially for GEP-NEC. Thus, we focused on Inhibitor of apoptosis protein (IAP) family members survivin and XIAP that orchestrate inhibition of apoptosis, induce resistance against chemotherapeutics and facilitate tumor metastasis. Copy number gains (CNGs) could be detected by microarray comparative genomic hybridization for survivin and XIAP in 60 % and 26.7 % of all GEP-NENs, respectively. Immunohistochemical staining of tissue specimens from 77 consecutive patients with GEP-NEN demonstrated increased survivin protein expression levels in tissue specimens of highly proliferative GEP-NEC or GEP-NEN located in the stomach and colon. In contrast, XIAP overexpression was associated with advanced tumor stages. Knockdown of survivin and XIAP markedly reduced cell proliferation and tumor growth. In vitro, YM155 induced apoptotic cell death accompanied by a reduction in cell proliferation and inhibited GEP-NEC xenograft growth. Taken together, our data provide evidence for a biological relevance of these IAPs in GEP-NEN and support a potential role of survivin as therapeutic target especially in the subgroup of aggressive GEP-NEC.
