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

Lung cancer incidence and mortality rates are amongst the highest of all malignant tumors worldwide. ARK5 is a member of the human AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) family which is implicated in tumor survival and progression. The current study was designed to explore the role of ARK5 in resistance of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) to cisplatin. We studied the sensitivity of two NSCLC cell lines, NCI-H1229 and A549, to cisplatin by using proliferation and cell viability assays. We then examined expression of ARK5, Twist, and the epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) biomarkers, E-cadherin and Vimentin, by Western blot and immunofluorescence. We found that ARK5 downregulation significantly increased the cisplatin chemosensitivity of NSCLC cells, and that NCI-H1299 cells, which express high levels of ARK5 and possess a mesenchymal phenotype, were more resistant to cisplatin than A549 cells, which show low expression ARK5. Furthermore, siRNA-mediated silencing of ARK5 resulted in altered EMT patterns in NSCLC cells. These data support a role for ARK5 in regulating EMT in NSCLC cells. Together, our findings suggest that ARK5 is a potential drug target for combating drug resistance and regulating EMT in NSCLC cells.
