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

Gemcitabine (GEM)-induced drug resistance is the major reason for the failure of chemotherapy in pancreatic cancer (PC). In this study, we found that Oblongifolin C (OC) efficiently inhibited PC cell proliferation by inducing G0/G1 arrest and apoptosis. Also, our mechanism study demonstrated that OC re-sensitized the GEM-resistant PC cells through the ubiquitin-proteasome-dependent degradation of Src, and then downregulating the MAPK pathway. Knockdown of Src plus OC resulted in a greater inhibitory effect in GEM-resistant PC cells. In contrast, Src overexpression reversed OC-mediated chemosensitization, thereby implicating Src in the action of OC. Moreover, our in vivo study showed that OC suppressed the tumor growth via the downregulation of Src, and enhanced the chemosensitivity of GEM-resistant PC to GEM. Overall, our results have revealed that OC is applicable as a promising agent for overcoming GEM-resistant PC, especially with aberrant Src expression.
