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

Colorectal cancer (CRC) continues to be one of the most malignant cancers with a high mortality rate to date. Promoting the radio-responsiveness of CRC is of great importance for local control and prognosis. In this study, we examined the roles of exosomal microRNA-19b (miR-19b) in CRC radioresistance. The regulatory role of miR-19b in CRC stem cells and radiotherapy-resistant cells was determined using miRNA microarray analysis, and its prognostic value was probed using the TCGA database. It was found that miR-19b was overexpressed in CRC tissues, which indicated a poor prognosis. CRC-derived exosomes (EXOs) enhanced the radio-resistance and stemness properties of CRC cells via delivery of miR-19b in vitro and in vivo. FBXW7 was identified as a putative target of miR-19b. On the contrary, reintroduction of FBXW7 reversed the effects of miR-19b on radioresistance and stemness properties. Furthermore, the Wnt/β-catenin pathway activity was elevated in CRC cells upon EXOs treatment, decreased after miR-19b downregulation, and increased again after FBXW7 downregulation. These results suggest that miR-19b inhibition could enhance the efficacy of radiotherapy while reducing the stemness properties, thus presenting a promising strategy for sensitizing CRC cells to radiotherapy.
