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

Radioresistance of breast cancer is a major reason for therapeutic failure and limits further increases in the dose of radiation due to severe adverse effects. Recently, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to regulate cancer proliferation, chemoresistance, and radioresistance. Among these lncRNAs, lncRNA GAS5 expression was shown to be downregulated in breast cancer and related to trastuzumab resistance. However, its role in the radiation response is unclear. In this study, we demonstrated that lncRNA GAS5 expression was reduced in irradiated cells and that overexpression of GAS5 reduced cell viability and promoted cell apoptosis after irradiation. Moreover, overexpression of GAS5 resulted in increased G2/M arrest and unrepaired DNA damage, indicating a radiosensitizing role of GAS5 in breast cancer cells. Finally, we found that a GAS5-interacting miRNA, miR-21, reversed the radiosensitizing effects of GAS5 by inhibiting the apoptotic pathway. In conclusion, we found that lncRNA GAS5 sensitized breast cancer cells to ionizing radiation by inhibiting DNA repair and suppressing miR-21, identifying novel targets for breast cancer radiosensitization.
