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

Survivin protein is a metalloprotein member of the inhibitors of apoptosis proteins family, involved in the regulation of programmed cell death. Due to the recent development of antitumor therapies having survivin as molecular target, several strategies to interfere with the expression or function of survivin have emerged. This work describes the discovery of a new potential inhibitor of survivin function using a computer-aided drug design approach. Structure-based virtual screening and molecular dynamic simulations were carried out to select two compounds as possible inhibitors. According to the binding energy, possible ligand localization is in a cavity, close to dimerization interface. Next, cell-based assays were performed on three cell lines: two with tumor phenotype and over-expression of survivin, and another with normal phenotype and low expression of survivin. One of the selected compounds shows a selectively antitumor effect on panel cell lines suggesting that the compound effect could be correlated with the survivin expression.
