Predictive value of serum glutathione S-transferase (GST-â), P-glycoprotein (PGP), P53, KI-67 in breast cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Article in Journal of medical biochemistry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Background: To assess the predictive value of drug-resistant proteins - serum glutathione S-transferase (GST-â), P-glycoprotein (PGP), P53, Ki-67 - in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and their role in chemotherapy resistance. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to explore their clinical relevance for improving TNBC treatment outcomes. Methods: We systematically searched PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI, WanFang, and VIP databases for studies from 2010 to 2024. Studies meeting predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria were selected. Data extraction and quality assessment were performed by two independent researchers. Meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.3 software. Results: Seven studies were included, involving 1,772 patients, with 745 TNBC cases and 1,027 non-TNBC cases. Meta-analysis showed that in TNBC compared to non-TNBC, the expression rates of GST-â [O R= 3.41, 95% CI (2.21, 5.25), P< 0.00001], PGP [O R= 1.87, 95% CI (1.17, 2.98), P= 0.008], P53 [O R= 3.65, 95% CI (2.25, 5.91), P< 0.00001], and Ki-67 [O R= 1.19, 95% CI (0.54, 1.84), P= 0.0004] were significantly elevated, indicating higher drug resistance. However, no significant differences were found in Topo I, II, or III expression. Additionally, TNBC patients had poorer disease-free survival (DFS) [O R = 0.30, 95% CI (0.15, 0.59), P=0.0005] and overall survival (OS) [O R=0.17, 95% CI (0.11, 0.28), P<0.00001] compared to non-TNBC patients. Conclusions: The elevated expression of drug-resistant proteins GST-â, PGP P53, and Ki-67 in TNBC suggests that these biomarkers are closely associated with chemotherapy resistance. Monitoring their levels during treatment may help guide more effective clinical strategies for managing TNBC. The findings emphasise the need for personalised therapeutic approaches based on protein expression profiles to improve clinical outcomes for TNBC patients.
