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

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of JS-K, a nitric oxide donor prodrug, on DNA damage and autophagy in bladder cancer (BCa) cells and to explore the potential related mechanisms. Through detecting proliferation viability, cell morphology observation and colony formation assay low concentrations of JS-K significantly inhibited BCa growth while having no effect on normal cells. JS-K induced an increase in the level of DNA damage protein γH2AX and a decrease in the level of DNA damage repair-related proteins PCNA and RAD51 in BCa cells, indicating that JS-K can induce DNA damage in BCa cells and inhibit DNA damage repair. JS-K induced G2/M phase block and calcium overload using flow cytometry analysis. Moreover, we also investigated the levels of cell G2/M cycle checkpoint-related protein and autophagy-associated protein by western blot. The results of our study demonstrated that JS-K induced BCa cells G2/M phase arrest due to upregulating proteins related to DNA damage-related G2/M checkpoint activation (p-ATM, p-ATR, p-Chk1, p-Chk2, and p-Cdc2) and down-regulation of Cyclin B1 protein. In addition, our study demonstrated that JS-K-induced autophagy in BCa cells was related to the CAMKKβ/AMPKα/mTOR pathway.
