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

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the leading causes of cancer death worldwide. Endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) is generally activated in HCC and is important for the sensitivity of HCC to anticancer drugs. ERS-dependent autophagy is a crucial mechanism affecting the sensitivity of HCC to anticancer drugs, but the mechanism by which ERS regulates autophagy is not well understood. Zinc finger protein 263 (ZNF263) is a transcription factor member of the zinc finger family. However, its functional role in HCC remains to be studied. In the current study, we investigated the role of ZNF263 in regulating ERS-induced chemoresistance in HCC and its possible mechanism. We found that ZNF263 was the most significant ERS-specific super-enhancer bounding transcriptional factor and was up-regulated in HCC patients and cell lines. Further, ZNF263 expression correlated with ERS, clinical stage and shorter survival in HCC patients. ZNF263 knockdown by RNA interference results in decreased proliferation, apoptosis resistance, and chemoresistance. Further study showed that ZNF263 increased chemoresistance by activating ERS-related autophagy. In conclusion, our study highlights ZNF263 as a functional ERS-related tumor activator and indicates it as a potential target for HCC therapy.
