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

Ovarian cancer is the most common gynecological malignancy. At present, cisplatin is used to treat ovarian cancer; however, the development of cisplatin resistance during therapy is a common obstacle to achieving favorable outcomes. Recently, the B‑cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl‑2) BH4 domain has been reported to mediate the prosurvival activity of Bcl‑2 in cancer; however, the involvement of the BH4 domain of Bcl‑2 in the cisplatin resistance of ovarian carcinoma cells is not entirely clear. In this study, we observed the cytoplasmic and mitochondrial levels of Ca2+ by confocal laser microscopy. We also detected cell apoptosis using western blot analysis and flow cytometry. The present study demonstrated that TAT‑fused inositol 1,4,5‑trisphosphate receptor‑derived peptide (TAT‑IDPS), which targets the BH4 domain of Bcl‑2, increased cisplatin‑induced Ca2+ flux from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) into the cytosol and mitochondria. In addition, TAT‑IDPS increased cisplatin‑induced expression of mitochondrial apoptosis‑associated proteins and ER stress‑associated proteins. These results indicated that TAT‑IDPS may enhance the cytotoxicity of cisplatin toward ovarian carcinoma cells by increasing ER Ca2+ release.
