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

Despite initial dramatic efficacy of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) in EGFR-mutant lung cancer patients, subsequent emergence of acquired resistance is almost inevitable. Resveratrol and its derivatives have been found to exert some effects on EGFR-TKI resistance in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We screened several NSCLC cell lines with gefitinib resistance by MTT assay and analysed the miR-345/miR-498 expression levels. NSCLC cells were pre-treated with a resveratrol derivative, trans-3,5,4-trimethoxystilbene (TMS) and subsequently challenged with gefitinib treatment. The changes in apoptosis and miR-345/miR-498 expression were analysed by flow cytometry and q-PCR respectively. The functions of miR-345/miR-498 were verified by CCK-8 assay, cell cycle analysis, dual-luciferase reporter gene assay and immunoblotting analysis. Our results showed that the expression of miR-345 and miR-498 significantly decreased in gefitinib resistant NSCLC cells. TMS pre-treatment significantly upregulated the expression of miR-345 and miR-498 increasing the sensitivity of NSCLC cells to gefitinib and inducing apoptosis. MiR-345 and miR-498 were verified to inhibit proliferation by cell cycle arrest and regulate the MAPK/c-Fos and AKT/Bcl-2 signalling pathways by directly targeting MAPK1 and PIK3R1 respectively. The combination of TMS and gefitinib promoted apoptosis also by miR-345 and miR-498 targeting the MAPK/c-Fos and AKT/Bcl-2 signalling pathways. Our study demonstrated that TMS reduced gefitinib resistance in NSCLCs via suppression of the MAPK/Akt/Bcl-2 pathway by upregulation of miR-345/498. These findings would lay the theoretical basis for the future study of TMS for the treatment of EGFR-TKI resistance in NSCLCs.
