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

This investigation aims to study the reversal effect of the Chinese herbal compound SanHuang decoction on axitinib resistance in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) cells and its mechanistic role by employing cellular and mouse models. Axitinib-resistant ccRCC cell lines (A498-DR and 786-O-DR) were cultured and treated with SanHuang decoction. The apoptosis and migration of tumor cells were observed by flow cytometry and wound healing assays, respectively, and the expression of a disintegrin-like and metalloprotease with thrombospondin type 1 motif 18 (ADAMTS18) was evaluated by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blotting (WB). In addition, A498-DR cells were inoculated into mice to establish tumorigenic models, and the models were treated with normal saline, axitinib, or different concentrations of SanHuang decoction plus axitinib. Then, the tumor diameter in each group was measured, and the expression of ADAMTS18 was evaluated by RT-PCR, WB and immunohistochemistry. In addition, the distribution of T cells (CD45+, CD4+, CD8+) and PD-L1 expression was analyzed by flow cytometry to evaluate the level of immune cell infiltration. SanHuang decoction significantly reduced the proliferative activity of axitinib-resistant tumor cells and enhanced the sensitivity of tumors to axitinib
