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

Despite the recurring outbreak of resistance mechanisms and adverse reactions, doxorubicin (Doxo) still remains the standard-of-care for several cancers, including osteosarcoma (OS). As an appealing source of phytochemical compounds, naturally occurring molecules have extensively been reported to overcome Doxo limitations in preclinical models. Unlike other dietary polyphenols, only few studies recognize chlorogenic acid (CGA) as a potential partner in combination therapy, while, conversely, its anticancer evidence is steadily growing, ultimately in OS. On this basis, herein we examine the cooperating effects between CGA and Doxo in U2OS and MG-63 human OS cells. With respect to Doxo alone, the concomitant administration of CGA further decreased cell viability and growth, promoting cell death potentially via apoptosis induction. Furthermore, a longer-lasting reduction in clonogenic potential deeply supported the CGA ability to improve Doxo efficacy in those cells. Remarkably, CGA treatment ameliorated Doxo-induced cytotoxicity in H9c2 rat cardiomyocyte cells instead. Although inactivation of p44/42 MAPK was detected in response to CGA plus Doxo, PD98059-mediated p44/42 MAPK impairment enhanced the combination outcome in OS cells. These findings firstly propose CGA as a promising chemosensitizer and cardioprotective agent in OS therapy, suggesting the p44/42 MAPK pathway as relevantly involved in CGA-mediated Doxo susceptibility.
