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

backgroundGastric cancer is a major global health concern characterized by high incidence and mortality rates. One of the key challenges in treating gastric cancer is the development of resistance to chemotherapy drugs like cisplatin (DDP). This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of Zuo Jin Wan (ZJW), a traditional Chinese medicine, in overcoming DDP resistance in gastric cancer cells.

methodsThe research employed gastric cancer cells with DDP resistance, namely SGC7901/DDP and AGS/DDP, to explore the molecular mechanisms underlying ZJW's effects.

resultsZJW significantly reduced DDP resistance by inhibiting the phosphorylation and preventing mitochondrial translocation of Dynamin-related protein 1 (DRP1). ZJW treatment suppressed DRP1-mediated mitochondrial fission and mitophagy, thereby enhancing the sensitivity of resistant cells to DDP. Additionally, ZJW was observed to downregulate the AMPK signaling pathway, which plays a crucial role in DRP1 activation.

conclusionsBy modulating mitochondrial dynamics, ZJW disrupts protective mechanisms in resistant cancer cells, highlighting its potential as an adjunct therapy. This study underscores the therapeutic potential of integrating traditional Chinese medicine with conventional chemotherapy to combat drug resistance in gastric cancer.
