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

backgroundPancreatic cancer is one of the most fatal malignancies with the lowest 5-year survival worldwide. Radioresistance remains the major challenge for pancreatic cancer treatment. The aim of this study is to unravel the mechanism underlying PAFAH1B1-regulated radiosensitivity in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).

methodsImmunohistochemistry (IHC), western blot or qRT-PCR were employed to detect the expression of PAFAH1B1, PUM2 and other molecules. Two radiation-resistant (RR) PDAC cell lines and a xenograft mouse model were established. CCK-8, colony formation assays and flow cytometry analysis were used to assess cell proliferation and apoptosis in PDAC cells, respectively. Ferroptosis was evaluated using commercial kits and BODIPY 581/591 C11 staining. The association between PUM2 and PAFAH1B1 3'UTR, as well as between miR-421/miR-301a-3p and PAFAH1B1 3'UTR, were detected by luciferase and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assays.

resultsPAFAH1B1 was downregulated in PDAC, and it was associated with unfavorable prognosis and radiotherapy response of PDAC patients. PAFAH1B1 overexpression enhanced the radiosensitivity to

conclusionPUM2/PAFAH1B1 axis decreased the radioresistance to
