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

These days, cancer can still not be effectively cured because cancer cells readily develop resistance to anticancer drugs. Therefore, an effective combination of drugs with different mechanisms to prevent drug resistance has become a very important issue. Furthermore, the BH3-only protein BNIP3 is involved in both apoptotic and autophagic cell death. In this study, lung cancer cells were treated with a chemotherapy drug alone or in combination to identify the role of BNIP3 and autophagy in combination chemotherapy for treating cancer. Our data revealed that various combinational treatments of two drugs could increase cancer cell death and cisplatin in combination with rapamycin or LBH589, which triggered the cell cycle arrest at the S phase. Cells with autophagosome and pEGFP-LC3 puncta increased when treated with drugs. To confirm the role of autophagy, cancer cells were pre-treated with the autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine (3-MA). 3-MA sensitized cancer cells to chemotherapy drug treatments. These results suggest that autophagy may be responsible for cell survival in combination chemotherapy for lung cancer. Moreover, BNIP3 was induced and localized in mitochondria when cells were treated with drugs. The transfection of a dominant negative transmembrane deletion construct of BNIP3 (BNIP3ΔTM) and treatment of a reactive oxygen species (ROS) inhibitor suppressed chemo drug-induced cell death. These results indicate that BNIP3 and ROS may be involved in combination chemo drug-induced cell death. However, chemo drug-induced autophagy may protect cancer cells from drug cytotoxicity. As a result, inhibiting autophagy may improve the effects of combination chemotherapy when treating lung cancer.
