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

Platinum-based chemotherapy is currently a standard treatment strategy for patients with gastric cancer. Eventhough it has been widely shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in tumor development, whether miRNAs have a role in chemosensitivity of gastric cancer cells to platinum-based treatment remain largely undefined. In this study, a cisplatin-resistant gastric cancer cell line (SGC7901/DDP) with stable enhanced expression or knockdown of let-7b was generated. MTT and TUNEL assays were carried out to assess whether miR-let-7 is crucial for cell viability and apoptosis, respectively. In vitro luciferase reporter assay was performed to explore target genes of let-7b. Further, a subcutaneously transplanted tumor model in BALB/c nude mice was used to determine the impacts of let-7b on tumor growth in vivo. We observed that the let-7b-expression level of SGC7901/DDP cells was significantly lower than for its parental SGC7901 cells. Transfection of let-7b mimics was found to increase the cytotoxicity of DDP to SGC7901/DDP cells by inducing apoptosis. However, reversed cytotoxicity of DDP was observed in SGC7901/DDP cells with knockdown of let-7b. Luciferase reporter assay indicated that let-7b targeted AURKB in SGC7901/DDP cells. Knockdown of AURKB imitated the effect of let-7b overexpression on the sensitivity of SGC7901/DDP cells to DDP. Further investigation demonstrated that the SGC7901/DDP primary tumor growth was significantly reduced by let-7b mimic transfection. These findings indicate that overexpression of let-7b might provide a potential strategic approach for attenuating DDP resistance in SGC7901/DDP human gastric cancer cells.
