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 past decades, chemotherapy has resulted in improved outcomes for patients with osteosarcoma. However, resistance to chemotherapy often leads to poor prognoses. Cisplatin is a standard drug for osteosarcoma therapy, and chemoresistance to cisplatin in osteosarcoma limits the effectiveness of chemotherapy drugs. Transglutaminase 2 (TGM2) is a member of the transglutaminase family, and it is reported to be associated with chemoresistance in various types of cancer. The present study aimed to investigate the function of TGM2 in regulating chemosensitivity of osteosarcoma cells to cisplatin. For in vitro experiments, a cisplatin‑resistant osteosarcoma cell line (Saos2‑CIS‑R) was established, and TGM2 was demonstrated to be upregulated in the resistant Saos2‑CIS‑R cells compared with the normal Saos2 cells. The present study also revealed that TGM2 was associated with chemoresistance to cisplatin in osteosarcoma cells, and knockdown of TGM2 enhanced their chemosensitivity. In addition, TGM2 was demonstrated to affect the chemosensitivity of osteosarcoma cells via regulation of the activation of mitogen‑activated protein kinase and AKT serine/threonine kinase pathways. Expression of BCL2 apoptosis regulator, BCL2 associated X and caspase‑3 was also involved in chemoresistance development in osteosarcoma. For in vivo experiments, a mouse model was used to detect that the cisplatin sensitivity of Saos2‑CIS‑R cells was reversed following TGM2 knockdown. Taken together, the present data suggested a potentially important role for TGM2 in the regulation of osteosarcoma chemosensitivity. TGM2 might therefore serve as a therapeutic target for osteosarcoma.
