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

backgroundPancreatic cancer (PC) has a very poor prognosis and comparatively short survival. Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A (EIF5A) promotes cancer metastasis. Here, we exploited the biological role of EIF5A in PC chemoresistance.

methodsExpression of EIF5A was analysed in PC cells and tissues by real-time PCR, Western blotting, immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescent. EIF5A expression was specifically suppressed by transfection, and subsequently the alterations of growth behaviour and resistance to anticancer treatment were tested in an orthotopic tumour model.

resultsThe results showed EIF5A was increased in human PC tissues and PC cells. We found EIF5A knockdown reduced the PC proliferation ability in vivo and in vitro. In addition, sonic hedgehog (sHH) signalling pathway may be a downstream of EIF5A in PC cells. Inhibition of EIF5A and sHH signalling pathway could suppress PC cells proliferation and tumour growth. Importantly, EIF5A played an important role in gemcitabine sensitivity for PC.

conclusionTaken together, our results revealed that EIF5A regulated the proliferation of PC through the sHH signalling pathway and decreased the Gem sensitivity in PC, which provided a novel therapeutic strategy for PC patients.
