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

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most frequently occurring primary malignant tumors worldwide. Chemotherapeutic resistance is a major clinical problem in the treatment of CRC. Therefore, it is of great importance to investigate novel biomarkers that may predict chemoresistance and facilitate the development of individualized treatment for patients with CRC. The present study reported that let-7f-5p expression was elevated in chemotherapy-resistant CRC tissues compared with chemotherapy-sensitive tissues. Furthermore, upregulating let-7f-5p increased the expression levels of the anti-apoptotic proteins, B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) and B-cell lymphoma-extra large (Bcl-xL), and decreased the activity of caspase-3 and caspase-9 in CRC cells. By contrast, downregulating let-7f-5p yielded the opposite effect. Notably, the results indicated that let-7f-5p promoted chemotherapeutic resistance by directly repressing the expression of several pro-apoptotic proteins, including tumor protein p53, tumor protein p53-inducible nuclear protein 1, tumor protein p53-inducible nuclear protein 2 and caspase-3. Therefore, a novel mechanism by which let-7f-5p enhances the resistance of CRC cells to chemotherapeutics has been revealed, indicating that silencing let-7f-5p may become an effective therapeutic strategy against CRC.
