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

backgroundProstate cancer is currently the second most lethal malignancy in men worldwide due to metastasis and invasion in advanced stages. Studies have revealed that androgen deprivation therapy can induce stable remission in patients with advanced prostate cancer, although most patients will develop castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) in 1-2 years. Docetaxel and enzalutamide improve survival in patients with CRPC, although only for a short time, eventually patients develop primary or secondary resistance, causing disease progression or biochemical relapse.

methodsThe gene expression profiles of docetaxel-sensitive or -resistant prostate cancer cell lines, namely GSE33455, GSE36135, GSE78201, GSE104935, and GSE143408, were sequentially analyzed for differentially expressed genes and progress-free interval significance. Subsequently, the overall survival significance and clinic-pathological features were analyzed by the R package. The implications of hub genes mutations, methylation in prostate cancer and the relationship with the tumor immune cell infiltration microenvironment were assessed with the help of cBioPortal, UALCAN and TISIDB web resources. Finally, effects of the hub genes on the progression and drug resistance in prostate cancer were explored using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), immunohistochemistry, cell phenotype, and drug sensitivity.

resultGlutamate decarboxylase 1 (GAD1) was tentatively identified by bioinformatic analysis as an hub gene for the development of drug resistance, including docetaxel and enzalutamide, in prostate cancer. Additionally, GAD1 expression, mutation and methylation were significantly correlated with the clinicopathological features and the tumor immune microenvironment. RT-PCR, immunohistochemistry, cell phenotype and drug sensitivity experiments further demonstrated that GAD1 promoted prostate cancer progression and decreased the therapeutic effect of docetaxel or enzalutamide.

conclusionThis research confirmed that GAD1 was a hub gene in the progression and development of drug resistance in prostate cancer. This helped to explain prostate cancer drug resistance and provides new immune-related therapeutic targets and biomarkers for it.
