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

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer deaths. Though chemotherapy is the main treatment option for advanced CRC, patients invariably acquire resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs and fail to respond to the therapy. Although understanding the mechanisms regulating chemoresistance has been a focus of intense research to manage this challenge, the pathways governing resistance to drugs are poorly understood. In this study, we provide evidence for the role of ubiquitin ligase NEDD4 in resistance developed against the most commonly used CRC chemotherapeutic drug 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). A marked reduction in NEDD4 protein abundance was observed in a panel of CRC cell lines and patient-derived xenograft samples that were resistant to 5-FU. Knockout of NEDD4 in CRC cells protected them from 5-FU-mediated apoptosis but not oxaliplatin or irinotecan. Furthermore, NEDD4 depletion in CRC cells reduced proliferation, colony-forming abilities and tumour growth in mice. Follow-up biochemical analysis highlighted the inhibition of the JNK signalling pathway in NEDD4-deficient cells. Treatment with the JNK activator hesperidin in NEDD4 knockout cells sensitised the CRC cells against 5-FU. Overall, we show that NEDD4 regulates cell proliferation, colony formation, tumour growth and 5-FU chemoresistance in CRC cells.
