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: For locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC), patients who respond to chemotherapy have a potential survival advantage compared to nonresponsive patients. Thus, it is necessary to explore specific biological markers for the efficacy of chemotherapy, which is beneficial to personalized treatment. Methods: In the present study, we performed a comprehensive screening of site-specific N-glycopeptides in serum glycoproteins to identify glycopeptide markers for predicting the efficacy of chemotherapy, which is beneficial to personalized treatment. In total, 20 serum samples before and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) from 10 LACC patients (NACT response, n=6) and NACT nonresponse, n=4) cases) were analyzed using LC-MS/MS, and 20 sets of mass spectrometry (MS) data were collected using liquid chromatography coupled with high-energy collisional dissociation tandem MS (LC-HCD-MS/MS) for quantitative analysis on the novel software platform, Byos. We also identified differential glycopeptides before and after chemotherapy in chemo-sensitive and chemo-resistant patients. Results: In the present study, a total of 148 glycoproteins, 496 glycosylation sites and 2279 complete glycopeptides were identified in serum samples of LACC patients. Before and after chemotherapy, there were 13 differentially expressed glycoproteins, 654 differentially expressed glycopeptides and 93 differentially expressed glycosites in the NACT responsive group, whereas there were 18 differentially expressed glycoproteins, 569 differentially expressed glycopeptides and 99 differentially expressed glycosites in the NACT nonresponsive group. After quantitative analysis, 6 of 570 glycopeptides were identified as biomarkers for predicting the sensitivity of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in LACC. The corresponding glycopeptides included MASP1, LUM, ATRN, CO8A, CO8B and CO6. The relative abundances of the six glycopeptides, including MASP1, LUM, ATRN, CO8A, CO8B and CO6, were significantly higher in the NACT-responsive group and were significantly decreased after chemotherapy. High levels of these six glycopeptides may indicate that chemotherapy is effective. Thus, these glycopeptides are expected to serve as biomarkers for predicting the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in locally advanced cervical cancer. Conclusion: The present study revealed that the N-glycopeptide of MASP1, LUM, ATRN, CO8A, CO8B and CO6 may be potential biomarkers for predicting the efficacy of chemotherapy for cervical cancer.
