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

Combined oridonin (ORI), a natural and safe kaurene diterpenoid isolated from Rabdosia rubescens, and cetuximab (Cet), an anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody, have been reported to exert synergistic anti-tumor effects against laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) both in vitro and in vivo by our group. In the present study, we further found that ORI/Cet treatment not only resulted in apoptosis but also induced autophagy. AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway was found to be involved in the activation of autophagy in ORI/Cet-treated LSCC cells, which is independent of p53 status. Additionally, chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay showed that ORI/Cet significantly increased the binding NF-κB family member p65 with the promotor of BECN 1, and p65-mediated up-regulation of BECN 1 caused by ORI/Cet is coupled to increased autophagy. On the other hand, we demonstrated that either Beclin 1 SiRNA or autophagy inhibitors could increase ORI/Cet induced-apoptosis, indicating that autophagy induced by combination of the two agents plays a cytoprotective role. Interestingly, 48 h after the combined treatment, autophagy began to decrease but apoptosis was significantly elevated. Our findings suggest that autophagy might be strongly associated with the antitumor efficacy of ORI/Cet, which may be beneficial to the clinical application of ORI/Cet in LSCC treatment.
