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

Outcome for children with high-risk neuroblastoma (NB) remains suboptimal. Recurrence and metastasis caused by chemo-resistance is an underlying mechanism contributing to the poor prognosis. Aberrant expression of Rad51 is implicated in both radio- and chemo-sensitivity in many human malignancies. However, its clinical significance and relationship with chemo-sensitivity in NB remain undefined. In this study, Rad51 expression was first evaluated in 70 surgically resected NB specimens by immunochemistry using tissue microarray and the correlation with clinic-pathologic features including survival was assessed. We then conducted microarray-based search with the Tumor Neuroblastoma public datasets to validate the immunochemistry results. Furthermore, the role of Rad51 in drug sensitivity was studied by using short hairpin RNA in the human NB SK-N-BE(2) and SH-SY5Y cells with treatment of doxorubicin. Our findings demonstrated for the first time that Rad51 is a prognostic marker in NB and down-regulation of Rad51 can lead to chemo-sensitizing effect in human NB cells.
