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

Cyclin dependent kinase 14 (CDK14) plays a central role in the control of cell proliferation and cell cycle progression. However, the specific function and regulatory mechanism of CDK14 on paclitaxel (PTX) resistance in ovarian cancer (OC) remain unclear. The present study demonstrated that CDK14 was overexpressed in OC tissues and cells at mRNA and protein levels detected by qRT-PCR, Western blot, and immunohistochemistry. Survival analysis showed that elevated CDK14 was related to the poor prognosis of OC patients. Overexpression of CDK14 was correlated with chemoresistance in OC. The expression level of CDK14 was higher in PTX-resistant OC cells (SK3R-PTX and OV3R-PTX) than in their counterpart-sensitive cells (SK-OV-3 and OVCAR-3). Knockdown of CDK14 decreased multidrug resistance 1 (MDR1) and β-catenin expression in SK3R-PTX and OV3R-PTX cells and resensitized OC cells to PTX by decreasing cell proliferation and inducing cell apoptosis. Administration of transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 decreased CDK14 protein in PTX-resistant OC cells. The inhibitory effect of TGF-β1 on CDK14 expression was abolished in the presence of a TGF-β type I receptor kinase inhibitor (SB-431542). Furthermore, TGF-β signal transducer Smad2 protein directly bound to the region -437 to -446 upstream of the CDK14 transcription start site (TSS), resulting in downregulating the expression of CDK14. These data indicate that CDK14 is a PTX-resistant marker and is regulated by the TGF-β signaling pathway. Targeting CDK14 to enhance the sensitivity of PTX may provide a new therapeutic strategy for reversing the PTX resistance in OC.
