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

backgroundEndometrial cancer (EC) is a hormone dependent carcinoma that may involve complex molecular mechanisms. Endocrine therapy by blocking the estrogen and estrogen receptor α (ERα) has been effective in breast cancer, while it is still controversial in EC. Recently, estrogen-related receptor α (ERRα) was proven to be another endocrine therapy target.

methodsThe anti-tumor effect of selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) and XCT790 (XCT) used alone or in combination were evaluated in both of ERα-positive (ERα+) and ERα-negative (ERα-) EC cells. ERα and ERRα mRNA were tested by qPCR, while the protein was detected by Western blot. The proliferation was tested by MTS and cell cycle, apoptosis rate were analyzed by flow cytometry.

resultsA relatively high dose (10 μM) of tamoxifen (TAM) suppressed the expression of ERα and ERRα in two types of EC cells. However, 10 μM raloxifene (RAL) exhibited no effect on ERα and ERRα, while 10 μM XCT down regulated ERRα specifically, but not ERα in all EC cells. When dual targeting on ERα and ERRα by combining TAM with XCT, the proliferation inhibitory effect and apoptosis reached the strongest in all EC cells (

conclusionTaken together, the results indicate that dual targeting on ERα and ERRα represents a better anti-tumor effect, which provides a novel endocrine based therapy strategy for EC.
