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

Autophagy has a complex dual role in tumor survival or cell death owning to that is an evolutionarily conserved catabolic mechanism and provides the cells with a sustainable source of biomolecules and energy for the maintenance of homeostasis under stressful conditions such as tumor microenvironment. Hyperthermia is a rapidly growing field in cancer therapy and many advances have been made in understanding and applying the mechanisms of hyperthermia. The shallow oral and maxillofacial position and its abundant blood supply are favorable for the use of hyperthermia. However, the relationship between hyperthermia and autophagy has not been examined of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) in the tumor hypoxia microenvironment. Here, the expression level of autophagy relative genes is examined to explore autophagy effect on the responses of hyperthermia, hypoxia, and innutrition tumor microenvironment. It is founded that hyperthermia and hypoxia cause autophagy in starvation conditions; further, in hypoxia and innutrition tumor microenvironment, hyperthermia combines YC-1 and 3-MA could inhibit HIF-1α/BNIP3/Beclin1 signal pathway and decrease the secretion of HMGB1; moreover, the cell apoptosis rate increases with an inhibited of cell migration capacity. Thus, the present study demonstrated that combined use of YC-1 and 3-MA might increase the death of tumor cells in physiological and hyperthermic conditions, which could be relevant with the inhibition of autophagy in OSCC tumor cells under hypoxia microenvironment in vitro, which offers new insight into the therapy of OSCC and its application in treating others study carcinomas.
