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

Radiotherapy is one of the standard treatments for cervical cancer and head and neck cancer. However, the clinical efficacy of this treatment is limited by radioresistance. The discovery of effective prognostic biomarkers and the identification of new therapeutic targets have helped to overcome the problem of radioresistance. In this study, we show that in the context of PIK3CA mutation or amplification, high expression of fascin actin-bundling protein 1 (FSCN1) (using the median as the cut-off value) is associated with poor prognosis and radiotherapy response in cancer patients. Silencing FSCN1 enhances radiosensitivity and promotes apoptosis in cancer cells with PIK3CA alterations, and this process may be associated with the downregulation of YWHAZ. These results reveal that FSCN1 may be a key regulator of radioresistance and could be a potential target for improving radiotherapy efficacy in cervical cancer and head and neck cancer patients with PIK3CA alterations.
