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

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States. Currently, chemotherapy is a first-line treatment for CRC. However, one major drawback of chemotherapy is the emergence of multidrug resistance (MDR). It has been well-established that the overexpression of the ABCB1 and/or ABCG2 transporters can produce MDR in cancer cells. In this study, we report that in vitro, poziotinib can antagonize both ABCB1- and ABCG2-mediated MDR at 0.1-0.6 μM in the human colon cancer cell lines, SW620/Ad300 and S1-M1-80. Mechanistic studies indicated that poziotinib increases the intracellular accumulation of the ABCB1 transporter substrates, paclitaxel and doxorubicin, and the ABCG2 transporter substrates, mitoxantrone and SN-38, by inhibiting their substrate efflux function. Accumulation assay results suggested that poziotinib binds reversibly to the ABCG2 and ABCB1 transporter. Furthermore, western blot experiments indicated that poziotinib, at 0.6 μM, significantly downregulates the expression of the ABCG2 but not the ABCB1 transporter protein, suggesting that the ABCG2 reversal effect produced by poziotinib is due to transporter downregulation and inhibition of substrate efflux. Poziotinib concentration-dependently stimulated the ATPase activity of both ABCB1 and ABCG2, with EC
