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

Rapamycin is known to inhibit the mammalian target of rapamycin complex (mTORC)1 signaling pathway, but it is unable to effectively inhibit mTORC2, resulting in activation of protein kinase B in multiple myeloma (MM) cell lines. Additionally, certain studies have suggested that resveratrol has an effect on human MM cells, and that rapamycin in combination with resveratrol may be useful in cancer therapy. The present study aimed to investigate the combined treatment effect of resveratrol and rapamycin on the MM MM1.S cell line. The results demonstrated that combined treatment with rapamycin and resveratrol effectively inhibited cell viability in the MM1.S cell line through inhibition of the mTORC1 and mTORC2 signaling pathways, compared with resveratrol or rapamycin monotherapy. In addition, cyclin D1 levels were decreased and the activation of caspase-3 and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase was increased. These results suggested that downregulation of the mTOR signaling cascades is likely to be a crucial mediator in the impairment of viability and the induction of apoptosis resulting from combined therapy with resveratrol and rapamycin in MM1.S cells.
