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

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a prevalent malignancy in Southeast Asia and Southern China. Laminin subunit beta-3 (LAMB3) has been validated to participate in diverse cancers. Nevertheless, the role and mechanism of LAMB3 in NPC remain unclear. In this study, LAMB3 expression is upregulated in NPC cells and tissues. Interestingly, knockdown of LAMB3 promoted apoptosis and reduced the radioresistance of NPC cells. Besides, shLAMB3 enhanced X-ray-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation. Mechanically, knockdown of LAMB3 deactivated nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor 2 (NRF2) signaling pathway via enhancing forkhead box 3 (FOXO3) expression. In rescue experiments, suppression of NRF2 signaling pathway abrogated shLAMB3-induced NPC cell apoptosis and ROS accumulation under X-ray treatment. Similarly, LAMB3 knockdown restrains NPC tumor growth and reduces radioresistance in vivo. Thus, these findings concluded that knockdown of LAMB3 enhanced apoptosis and ROS accumulation, and suppressed radioresistance in NPC via enhancing FOXO3 expression and deactivating NRF2 signaling pathway, facilitating the development of novel strategies for NPC radioresistance.
