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

Approximately 20% of high-grade serous ovarian cancers are homologous-recombination (HR)-deficient due to genetic and epigenetic mutations of HR pathway genes including the tumor suppressor genes BRCA1 and 2. HR deficiency (HRD) compromises cells' ability to efficiently repair DNA damage, but it also increases sensitivity to chemotherapeutic treatment strategies; however, not all ovarian cancer patients with HRD tumors exhibit positive responses to chemotherapy. Our previous iTRAQ-based comprehensive proteomic characterization of high-grade serous ovarian carcinomas found that lower levels of histone H4 acetylation at Lys12 and Lys16 (H4-K12acK16ac) were associated with HRD tumors compared with non-HRD tumors. In the current study, we developed and validated an H4-K12acK16ac parallel-reaction-monitoring (PRM)-targeted mass-spectrometry-based assay to analyze acetylation changes of histone H4 and to determine the association of these changes with total H4, histone acetyltransferase, and histone deacetylase (HDAC) levels. Whereas the levels of H4 and histone acetyltransferases were stable irrespective of HRD status, the levels of histone H4 acetylation and one HDAC, HDAC6, were elevated in the HRD tumors. Relative H4 acetylation levels were also analyzed by an antibody-based approach in additional ovarian tumors. It is possible that specific H4 acetylation at Lys12 and Lys16 associated with HRD could inform chemotherapeutic treatment modalities to improve ovarian cancer patients' treatment response.
