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

RRM1-an important DNA replication/repair enzyme-is the primary molecular gemcitabine (GEM) target. High RRM1-expression associates with gemcitabine-resistance in various cancers and RRM1 inhibition may provide novel cancer treatment approaches. Our study elucidates how RRM1 inhibition affects cancer cell proliferation and influences gemcitabine-resistant bladder cancer cells. Of nine bladder cancer cell lines investigated, two RRM1 highly expressed cells, 253J and RT112, were selected for further experimentation. An RRM1-targeting shRNA was cloned into adenoviral vector, Ad-shRRM1. Gene and protein expression were investigated using real-time PCR and western blotting. Cell proliferation rate and chemotherapeutic sensitivity to GEM were assessed by MTT assay. A human tumor xenograft model was prepared by implanting RRM1 highly expressed tumors, derived from RT112 cells, in nude mice. Infection with Ad-shRRM1 effectively downregulated RRM1 expression, significantly inhibiting cell growth in both RRM1 highly expressed tumor cells. In vivo, Ad-shRRM1 treatment had pronounced antitumor effects against RRM1 highly expressed tumor xenografts (
