Role of Smac, survivin, XIAP, and Omi/HtrA2 proteins in determining the chemotherapeutic response of patients with cervical cancer treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

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.
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
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) followed by radical surgical hysterectomy and pelvic lymph node dissection is considered an effective method to treat patients with bulky stage IB-IIA cervical cancer, but not all patients benefit from NACT. Apoptotic proteins play important roles in the progression of chemotherapy, and second mitochondria-derived activator of caspase (Smac) may have a cooperative relationship with Omi/HtrA2, leading to carcinogenesis and chemotherapy resistance. Chemosensitivity is an important prognostic factor for cervical cancer patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the significance of Smac, survivin, X-linked inhibitor-of-apoptosis protein (XIAP), and Omi/HtrA2 expression in predicting the response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and the prognostic significance of te expression of these proteins in cervical cancer patients. Our findings showed that low expression levels of survivin and high expression levels of Omi/HtrA2 in chemotherapy-responsive cervical carcinoma patients significantly increased chemosensitivity.
