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

Indisulam is a synthetic sulfonamides drug with anticancer activity in various tumors. However, the effect and molecular mechanism of indisulam have still not been studied in human cervical cancer. We treated human cervical cancer cell lines (HeLa and C33A) with indisulam, evaluated its efficacy, and investigated its molecular targets. Indisulam inhibited tumor growth and induced RBM39 degradation in a dose-dependent manner. RNA-seq and proteomics analysis revealed that indisulam disrupted transcriptional regulation pathways related to mRNA splicing and apoptosis. More importantly, indisulam caused mis-splicing of RNA transcripts including p73 isoforms ΔNp73 and TAp73 which have opposite roles in apoptosis regulation. Indisulam increased TAp73 expression and triggered mitochondrial apoptosis independent of p53 status in HeLa cells. In summary, our data suggests that indisulam has therapeutic potential in cervical cancer, representing an attractive strategy in p53-disrupted cancers and should be further investigated.
