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

In the present study, the effects and underlying mechanism of RbAp48 on the radiosensitivity of AGS gastric cancer cells was investigated. Cell proliferation was determined with an MTT assay. Flow cytometry was performed to evaluate the cell cycle and apoptosis. Reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blot analysis were performed to detect mRNA and protein expression, respectively, including RbAp48, phosphoinositide 3‑kinase (PI3K) and protein kinase B (Akt). The results revealed that radiation enhanced the expression level of RbAp48 in AGS cells, and that RbAp48 combined with radiation reduced AGS cell proliferation. In addition, RbAp48 combined with radiation resulted in G2 phase arrest and induced apoptosis via regulation of the PI3K/Akt pathway. In conclusion, it was demonstrated that overexpression of RbAp48 enhanced the radiosensitivity of AGS gastric cancer cells via suppression of PI3K/Akt pathway activity, suggesting that RbAp48 may hold potential as a gene therapeutic strategy in the future, aiding in the treatment of gastric cancer.
