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

backgroundRenal cell carcinoma with rhabdoid features (RCC-RF) is an aggressive histologic variant in the adults and is usually unresponsive to standard chemotherapy.

methodsExpression of SMARCB1/INI1 was examined in primary RCC-RF (n = 5). Stable INI1 with/without prostaglandin E2 receptor 1 (EP1) knockdown cell lines were created in the ACHN and 786-O RCC cell lines and measured for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-related signaling pathways. Chemosensitivity to targeted drugs in vitro was tested after knocking down of INI1 in both cell lines. The outcome of co-targeting of INI1 and EP1 in RCC was examined using a tumorigenicity assay.

resultsExpression of INI1 was markedly reduced at both transcriptional and translational levels in primary RCC-RF. Immunohistochemical expression of INI1 protein was lost in the nuclei of rhabdoid cells compared with conventional RCC (n = 8). Using two cell lines with different genetic background, we showed that knocking down of INI1 activates the EGFR signaling with up-regulated AKT and ERK pathways and sensitizes cancer cells to Erlotinib treatment in vitro. However, cell-line dependent effects were also demonstrated with reference to impact of INI1 or EP1 on cell growth, migration and response to Gefitinib or Everolimus treatment in vitro.

conclusionInactivation of INI1 may play a role in the pathogenesis of RCC-RF. Erlotinib is recommended in the management of patients with INI1-related RCC.
