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

The aberrant expression of sialyltransferase has a role in cell differentiation, neoplastic transformation and the progression of various types of cancer. Our previous studies have shown that high expression of β‑galactoside‑α2,3‑sialyltransferase III (ST3Gal3) in the metastatic ovarian cancer cell line HO8910PM attenuated cisplatin‑induced apoptosis. The present study demonstrated that paclitaxel‑induced chemoresistance in ovarian cancer cells upregulated the expression of ST3Gal3 and reduced the activity of caspase‑8/3. The results of the present study revealed that the endogenous levels of ST3Gal3 mRNA and protein were significantly higher in HO8910PM cells compared with SKOV3 cells. A higher expression of ST3Gal3 was correlated with an increased resistance to paclitaxel, while the downregulation of ST3Gal3 resulted in paclitaxel‑induced apoptosis. Paclitaxel upregulated ST3Gal3 expression at the mRNA and protein levels in HO8910PM cells, but not in SKOV3 cells. Silencing of ST3Gal3 by small interfering RNA reversed these effects and increased the protein levels of caspase‑8/3, which may contribute to paclitaxel‑induced apoptosis. The results of the present study suggested that ST3Gal3 was a target for paclitaxel‑-related resistance during ovarian cancer chemotherapy.
