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

Anion exchanger (AE) 2, belonging to the chloride-bicarbonate transporter family, has been reported to involve cell survival for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells. Our previous findings showed that AE2 gene was highly expressed in a poorly differentiated HCC cell line, HA22T/VGH. Additionally, treatment with 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,20-disulfonic acid (DIDS), an AE-specific inhibitor, significantly inhibited cell proliferation and induced cell apoptosis for the HA22T/VGH. To further investigate the biological functions of AE2 in human HCC, suppression of AE2 expression by the antisense oligonucleotide-AE2 (AS-AE2) was performed, and the cell viability, cell cycle regulation, and cell apoptosis for HCC cell lines were monitored. The results showed that AS-AE2 treatment could efficiently suppress the mRNA expression of AE2 for various differentiated HCC cells, including HA22T/VGH, SK-Hep-1, PLC/PRF/5, Hep3B, and HepG2. Moreover, AS-AE2 treatment significantly reduced cell viability, arrested cell cycle at sub-G1 phase, and induced cell apoptosis for the poorly differentiated HA22T/VGH, but not for other moderately or well-differentiated HCC cell lines. The findings indicated that AE2 may play an important role in the progression of HCC cells, and provide a new strategy for the development of therapeutic treatment against human HCC.
