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

Treatment with cisplatin (DDP) is one of the standard therapies used to treat non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and fundamentally causes resistance in cancer cells, which eventually poses as an obstacle to the efficacy of chemotherapy in NSCLC. Efforts are on all over the world to explore a sensitizer of NSCLC to DDP. Here, we studied the effect of IL-7 on the resistance of NSCLC to chemotherapy. We observed that IL-7 treatment significantly enhanced DDP-induced effects in A549 and A549/DDP cells (DDP-resistant cells), including decreased cell viability and proliferation, as well as increased cell apoptosis and S arrest, indicating that IL-7 treatment resensitized DDP-resistant NSCLC cells to DDP. Subsequently, IL-7 enhanced the sensitivity of PI3K/AKT signaling and expressions of ABCG2 to DDP. By inhibiting IL-7 signaling via IL-7R knockdown or activating PI3K/AKT signaling via PI3K activation, the resensitization to DDP by IL-7 was abrogated, and the expression levels of ABCG2, p-PI3K, and p-AKT were found to be significantly higher. In vivo results also confirmed that IL-7 only in combination with DDP could remarkably induce tumor regression with reduced levels of ABCG2 in tumorous tissues. These findings indicate that IL-7, apart from its adjuvant effect, could overcome multidrug resistance of DDP to restore its chemotherapy sensitivity.
