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

backgroundIncreasing evidence suggests the involvement of enhancer of zeste homologue 2 (EZH2) in chemoresistance of cancer treatment. Nevertheless, its function and molecular mechanisms in gastric cancer (GC) chemoresistance are still not well elucidated. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn the present study, we investigated the functional role of EZH2 in 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) resistance of GC cells and discovered the underlying molecular mechanism.

resultsResults revealed that EZH2 was upregulated in 5-FU-resistant GC tissues and cell lines. High ZEH2 expression was correlated with poor prognosis of GC patients. EZH2 knockdown enhanced 5-FU sensitivity of AGS/5-FU and SGC-7901/5-FU cells. Moreover, EZH2 could epigenetically suppress FBXO32 expression. FBXO32 overexpression could mimic the functional role of downregulated EZH2 in 5-FU resistance. FBXO32 knockdown counteracted the inductive effect of EZH2 inhibition on 5-FU sensitivity of AGS/5-FU and SGC-7901/5-FU cells. Furthermore, EZH2 knockdown facilitated 5-FU sensitivity of 5-FU-resistant GC cells in vivo.

conclusionIn summary, EZH2 depletion overcame 5-FU resistance in GC by epigenetically silencing FBXO32, providing a novel therapeutic target for GC chemoresistance.
