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

Objective: While carboplatin remains a cornerstone chemotherapeutic agent for ovarian carcinoma, the emergence of resistance constitutes a major contributor to therapeutic failure and compromised clinical outcomes. This study elucidates molecular mechanisms driving carboplatin resistance and identifies novel therapeutic targets for carboplatin-refractory malignancies through characterization of a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA)-encoded micropeptide. Material and Methods: Ribosome profiling analysis delineated translational alterations induced by carboplatin in ovarian cancer models. Mechanistic validation was achieved through the integration of gain- and loss-of-function methodologies, nuclear localization assays, and quantitative assessment of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage through enumeration of gamma-H2AX (phosphorylated histone H2AX at serine 139) foci, supplemented by alkaline comet analysis. The therapeutic significance was corroborated using subcutaneous xenograft models derived from patient-derived ovarian cancer cells. Results: The micropeptide carboplatin-induced upregulation factor (CARUF), derived from lncRNA LOC101926915, was markedly upregulated in response to carboplatin treatment, with ribosome profiling showing significant enrichment of ribosome-associated LOC101926915 transcripts (adjusted Conclusion: Our findings identify CARUF as a critical mediator of aberrant DNA damage response signaling in carboplatin-resistant ovarian cancer, indicating its potential as a druggable target for overcoming carboplatin resistance.
