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

backgroundCisplatin (DDP) is a commonly utilized chemotherapeutic agent. Nevertheless, the development of resistance to DDP significantly diminishes the effectiveness of DDP-based chemotherapy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In this study, we investigated the impact of endothelin 1 (EDN1) on the resistance to DDP in NSCLC.

methodsThe proliferation, invasion, and migration of NSCLC cells were detected by cell counting kit-8 and Transwell migration and invasion assays. ELISA was performed to analyze the inflammatory cytokines concentrations. The related protein levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) signaling pathway were analyzed by Western blot. Besides, a xenograft tumor mice model was established to explore the role of EDN1 in vivo.

resultsThe results showed that DDP-resistance upregulated EDN1 expression, cell viability, invasion, migration, and inflammation in NSCLC cells, while the results were reversed after EDN1 inhibition. EDN1 affected DDP-resistance of NSCLC by regulating TNF signaling pathway. Overexpression of TNF receptor-1 (TNFR1) reversed the decreased cell viability, invasion, migration, and inflammation induced by silencing EDN1 in A549/DDP cells. Moreover, silencing EDN1 inhibited tumor growth and the protein levels of EDN1 and TNFR1.

conclusionEDN1 promoted DDP resistance in NSCLC cells through the modulation of the TNF signaling pathway, suggesting a potential therapeutic intervention strategy for NSCLC.
