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

Radiotherapy is a cornerstone of colorectal cancer (CRC) treatment; however, its therapeutic efficacy is often compromised by both intrinsic and acquired resistance in CRC cells. This study employed small interfering RNA (siRNA) technology to elucidate the functional roles of BAMBI, GADD34, NFKBIA, and NFKBID in CRC cell lines SW480 and HCT116. We assessed their impact on key cellular processes and radiation sensitivity. Gene silencing of all four target genes significantly suppressed CRC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Moreover, siRNA-mediated knockdown enhanced radiation sensitivity, as evidenced by a substantial increase in apoptosis and a marked reduction in cell viability compared with controls. These findings suggest that BAMBI, GADD34, NFKBIA, and NFKBID serve as critical regulators of CRC progression and radiation resistance. Overall, this study provides a mechanistic foundation for further exploration into the pathways underlying radiation resistance and underscores the potential for developing personalized radiotherapy strategies guided by molecular profiling.
