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

Patients with ovarian serous carcinoma are generally diagnosed at an advanced disease stage. The standard treatment for these patients is maximal debulking surgery followed by platinum-taxane combination chemotherapy. Despite initially responding well, more than half of patients become refractory to first-line chemotherapy. Upregulation of protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1) expression has been demonstrated to methylate apoptosis signal-regulated kinase 1 and inhibit its activity, thereby contributing to chemoresistance. The present study investigated the association between PRMT1 expression and sensitivity to platinum-based chemotherapy in 51 patients with ovarian serous carcinoma (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stages III and IV), and the effect of RNA interference-mediated downregulation of PRMT1 on the sensitivity of ovarian cancer cells to cisplatin and carboplatin
