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

Recent studies have shown that IRF-1 plays a significant role in various tumour-induced chemoresistance, but its role and mechanism in gastric cancer-associated chemoresistance are not clear. Our study showed that IRF-1 expression could reverse gastric cancer-related chemoresistance. Dysregulated DNA repair is an important cause of chemoresistance. We established a chemoresistant gastric cancer cell line and found that drug-resistant gastric cancer cells had increased DNA repair ability and that IRF-1 regulated DNA damage repair. Further studies showed that IRF-1 inhibited the expression of RAD51 directly by binding to the RAD51 promoter to affect DNA damage repair; this binding reversed resistance. However, restoring the expression of RAD51 halted the inhibitory effect of IRF-1 partially. Also, we revealed that the overexpression of IRF-1 in a mouse model synergized with chemotherapeutic drugs to inhibit tumour growth. Finally, IRF-1 expression correlated with RAD51 expression in gastric cancer specimens. The expression of IRF-1 and RAD51 are both related to the survival duration of patients with gastric cancer. These results suggest that targeting IRF-1-RAD51 could be an effective approach to reversing multidrug resistance in gastric cancer.
