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

introductionThe metabolic shift induced by hypoxia in cancer cells has not been explored at volatilomic level so far. The volatile organic metabolites (VOMs) constitute an important part of the metabolome and their investigation could provide us crucial aspects of hypoxia driven metabolic reconfiguration in cancer cells.

objectiveTo identify the altered volatilomic response induced by hypoxia in metastatic/aggressive breast cancer (BC) cells.

methodsBC cells were cultured under normoxic and hypoxic conditions and VOMs were extracted using HS-SPME approach and profiled by standard GC-MS system. Univariate and multivariate statistical approaches (p < 0.05, Log

resultsOverall, 20 VOMs were found to be significantly altered (p < 0.05, PC1 > 0.13/< - 0.13) upon hypoxic exposure to BC cells. Further, cell line specific volatilomic alterations were extracted by comparative metabolic analysis of aggressive (MDA-MB-231) vs. non-aggressive (MCF-7) cells incubated under hypoxia and normoxia. In this case, 15 and 12 VOMs each were found to be significantly altered in aggressive cells when exposed to hypoxic and normoxic condition respectively. Out of these, 9 VOMs were found to be uniquely associated with hypoxia, 6 were specific to normoxia and 6 were found common to both the conditions. Formic acid was identified as the most prominent molecule with higher abundance levels in aggressive as compared to non-aggressive cells in both conditions. Furthermore, metabolic pathway analyses revealed that fatty acid biosynthesis and nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism were significantly altered in aggressive as compared to non-aggressive cells in normoxia and hypoxia respectively.

conclusionsHigher formate overflow was observed in aggressive cells compared to non-aggressive cells incubated under both the conditions, reinforcing its correlation with aggressive and invasive cancer type. Moreover, under hypoxia, aggressive cells preferred to be bioenergetically more efficient whereas, under normoxia, fatty acid biosynthesis was favoured when compared to non-aggressive cells.
