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

Background: Poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase (PARP) inhibitors are a class of molecular-targeted cancer drugs. Synthetic lethality is a phenomenon that renders homologous recombination repair defective cells more sensitive to PARP inhibitors. As a component of the cohesin complex, RAD21 regulates DNA damage repair. However, the biological roles of RAD21 in ovarian cancer and their underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Methods: An immunohistochemical assay was used to validate the expression of RAD21 in ovarian cancer and its correlation with prognosis. The effects of RAD21 were evaluated through Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK8), wound-healing, and invasion assays Results: RAD21 was markedly upregulated in ovarian cancer samples. High RAD21 expression was correlated with poor differentiation and poor prognosis in patients with ovarian cancer. Functionally, RAD21 overexpression promoted cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Moreover, RAD21 knockdown increased the sensitivity of ovarian cancer cells to three kinds of PARP inhibitors by affecting DNA damage repair. Conclusions: RAD21 can serve as a valuable prognostic marker for ovarian cancer and has the potential as a therapeutic target that can expand the utility of PARP inhibitors.
