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

objectiveTo investigate the effect of overexpression of ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme 2T (UBE2T) on radiosensitivity of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

methodsHepa1-6 cells were transfected with a UBE2T-overexpressing or a control lentiviral vector, and the changes in their radiotherapy sensitivity and concentrations of glucose and lactate in the supernatant were assessed using colony-forming assay and colorimetric assay. The transfected cells were inoculated subcutaneously in nude mice or C57BL/6 mice, and tumor growth following irradiation were recorded. The xenografts were collected for analyzing infiltration of CD4

resultsUBE2T overexpression caused radiotherapy resistance in both cultured Hepa1-6 cells and xenografts in the tumor-bearing mouse models (especially in C57BL/6 mice). CIBERSORT analysis suggested that a high expression of UBE2T was associated with increased percentages of dendritic cells, T follicular helper cells, M2 macrophages, monocytes, lymphocytes and Tregs in HCC. The UBE2T-overexpressing xenografts showed an increased percentage of Tregs and enhanced expressions of HK1 and LDHA, and irradiation increased infiltration of CD4

conclusionA high UBE2T expression results in radiotherapy resistance of HCC possibly by enhancing glycolysis and cause enrichment of Tregs in the tumor microenvironment.
