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

objectiveThis article is dedicated to finding important genes related to the prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), looking for a new gene that may affect tumor radiosensitivity, and conducting basic experiments to verify the relationship between this gene and the radiosensitivity of LUAD.

methodsThe gene expression profiles GSE32863, GSE33532, and GSE43458 were obtained from NCBI-GEO. GEO2R and a Venn diagram were used to identify upregulated genes. STRING and Cytoscape were applied to develop a protein-protein interaction network (PPI) and analyze the modules. The Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery (DAVID) was used to process the GO and KEGG pathway analysis. The Kaplan Meier plotter and Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA) were applied to get the significant prognostic information and differential expression between LUAD tissues and normal lung tissues. Western blotting and Q-PCR were used to detect the expression of PKMYT1 in tissues. Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) were used to knockdown PKMYT1. The colony survival experiment was used to assess the effect of PMYT1 on the radiosensitivity of tumor cells. Cell cycle analysis was used to assess cell cycle distribution.

resultsWe identified 14 genes (PKMYT1, TTK, CHEK1, CDC20, PTTG1, MCM2, CDC25C, MCM4, CCNB1, CDC45, MAD2L1, CCNB2, BUB1, and CCNA2) that are important for LUAD and may be potential therapeutic targets. We confirmed that PKMYT1 is highly expressed in LUAD and firstly demonstrated that artificially silencing the expression of PKMYT1 can abrogate IR-induced G2/M phase arrest and increase the sensitivity of cancer cells to radiation.

conclusionIn summary, we obtained 14 core genes related to the poor prognosis of LUAD via bioinformatical analysis. We identified that PKMYT1 was significantly upregulated in LUAD tissues and firstly demonstrated that knockdown of PKMYT1 can eliminate the radiation-induced G2/M arrest, resulting in a lower survival rate for cells receiving radiation therapy. Our findings suggested that PKMYT1 is a promising target to improve the radiosensitivity of LUAD.
