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

backgroundHuman renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common type of kidney cancer that arises from the renal epithelium. Up to 33.3% of RCC patients treated with local tumor resections will subsequently develop recurrence or metastases. Thus, optimized therapeutic regimes are urgently needed to improve the prognosis of RCC. Reversine was recently reported to exert critical roles in cancer therapy. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis study evaluated the anti-tumor effects of reversine on cell viability, colony formation, apoptosis, and cell cycle in 786-O and ACHN cell lines.

resultsIt was demonstrated that reversine significantly inhibited the proliferation of both cell lines in time- and dose-dependent manners. Polyploidy formation was observed under high-concentration reversine treatment. In addition, reversine induced cell death via caspase-dependent apoptotic pathways, which could be partially inhibited by Z-VAD-FMK, a pan-caspase inhibitor.

conclusionReversine could effectively suppress the proliferation of human RCC cells, and may serve as a novel therapeutic regimen for RCC in clinical practice.
