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

Cisplatin-based regimens are commonly used for the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) in patients who receive concurrent chemoradiotherapy. The sensitivity of NPC cells to cisplatin is closely associated with the efficacy of radiation therapy. In this study, we established two radioresistant NPC cell lines, HONE1-IR and CNE2-IR, and found that both cell lines showed reduced sensitivity to cisplatin. RNA-sequence analysis showed that SLC1A6 was upregulated in both HONE1-IR and CNE2-IR cell lines. Downregulation of SLC1A6 enhanced cisplatin sensitivity in these two radioresistant NPC cell lines. It was also found that the expression of SLC1A6 was induced during radiation treatment and correlated with poor prognosis of NPC patients. Notably, we observed that upregulation of SLC1A6 led to elevating level of glutamate and the expression of drug-resistant genes, resulted in reduced cisplatin sensitivity. Our findings provide a rationale for developing a novel therapeutic target for NPC patients with cisplatin resistance.
