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

Cold inducible RNA binding protein (CIRP), also named A18 hnRNP or CIRBP, is a cold-shock RNA-binding protein which can be induced upon various cellular stresses. Its expression level is induced in various cancer tissues relative to adjacent normal tissues; this is believed to play a critical role in cancer development and progression. In this study, we investigated the role of CIRP in cells exposed to ionizing radiation. Our data show that CIRP reduction causes cell colony formation and cell viability reduction after irradiation. In addition, CIRP knockdown cells demonstrated a higher DNA damage rate but less cell cycle arrest after irradiation. As a result, the induced DNA damage with less DNA repair processes led to an increased cell apoptosis rate in CIRP knockdown cells postirradiation. These findings suggest that CIRP is a critical protein in irradiated cells and can be used as a potential target for sensitizing cancer cells to radiation therapy.
