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

Gastric cancer is the fifth most common malignancy in the world, with Eastern Asia as one of areas with the highest incidence rates. Trastuzumab, a HER2-targeting antibody, combined with chemotherapy has been successfully employed for the gastric cancer patients with HER2 overexpression/amplification. However, trastuzumab resistance is a major problem in clinical practice. Here we observed that the trastuzumab-resistant gastric cancer cell line NCI-N87/TR expressed high levels of epithelial-mesenchymal transition factors and demonstrated increased migration and invasion capability compared with NCI-N87 cells. Downregulated E-cadherin and increased N-cadherin, TGF-β, ZEB1, ZEB2, TWIST1, and Snail were detected in NCI-N87/TR cells. We also found that miR-200c was downregulated in NCI-N87/TR cells compared with parental cells NCI-87 by qRT-PCR. Treatment with TGF-β downregulated the expression of miR-200c and upregulated ZEB2, and significantly decreased the trastuzumab sensitivity of NCI-N87 cells. miR-200c restored trastuzumab sensitivity and inhibited migration and invasion through suppressing ZEB1 and ZEB2. In summary, TGF-β/ZEB2 axis plays an encouraging role in trastuzumab resistance of gastric cancer, while miR-200c overexpression downregulates ZEB1/ZEB2 and resensitizes drugs resistance. Our findings might provide a potential therapeutic strategy for trastuzumab resistance of gastric cancer.
