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

backgroundThe At-rich interactive domain 1A (ARID1A) is frequently mutated in gastric cancers (GCs) with a poor prognosis. Growing evidence indicates that loss of ARID1A expression leads to activation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT pathway by AKT phosphorylation. We aim to investigate the different sensitivity for the AKT inhibitor in ARID1A-deficient GC cells.

methodsAfter transfection using siRNA or shRNA, the effect of ARID1A knockdown on the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway was evaluated by Western blot analysis. ARID1A-knockdown cells were treated with AKT inhibitor (GSK690693), 5-fluorouracil, or cisplatin, alone or in combination. Viability and apoptosis were analyzed using EZ-CYTOX cell viability assay and flow cytometry, respectively.

resultsARID1A depletion accelerated the phosphorylation of AKT and S6 in a dose-dependent manner and led to an increased proliferation of MKN-1, MKN-28, and KATO-III GC cells (

conclusionLoss of ARID1A expression is a surrogate marker for the activation of the AKT signaling pathway and is also a reliable biomarker to predict the response for the AKT inhibitor. We anticipate that appropriate patient selection based on ARID1A expression in the tumor tissue will increase the drug sensitivity for the AKT inhibition and improve the clinical outcome.
