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

backgroundTamoxifen is a first-line endocrine agent and is often used to treat estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer. Unfortunately, approximately 30-40% of patients who received tamoxifen therapy experience recurrence or progression to a fatal advanced stage due to tamoxifen resistance. However, the mechanisms of tamoxifen resistance remain unclear.

methodsThe expression of lncRNA DLGAP1 antisense RNA 2 (DLGAP1-AS2) was detected by qPCR. The effect of DLGAP1-AS2 on tamoxifen resistance was evaluated by MTT, colony formation, TUNEL and flow cytometric assays. The mechanisms by which DLGAP1-AS2 regulates tamoxifen resistance were investigated through qPCR, RNA pull-down assays and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assays.

resultsOur results showed that DLGAP1-AS2 is significantly upregulated in breast cancer and that tamoxifen can induce DLGAP1-AS2 expression. Further investigation suggested that upregulation of DLGAP1-AS2 can increase cell viability and inhibit apoptosis, while downregulation of DLGAP1-AS2 results in the opposite effects. Mechanistically, DLGAP1-AS2 can bind to the AFF3 protein to inhibit its degradation, which further promotes ER signalling.

conclusionsOur research clarified that DLGAP1-AS2 promotes ER signalling to induce tamoxifen resistance and that targeting DLGAP1-AS2 might be a promising strategy to overcome tamoxifen resistance in breast cancer.
