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

purposeThe aim of this study was to investigate the role of Li-cadherin in invasion and metastasis in LoVo cells.

methodsWe applied RNA interference mediated downregulation of Li-cadherin expression in LoVo cells. Li-cadherin expression in LoVo cells was examined by semiquantitative polymerase chain reaction, immunofluorescence, western blot, and immunoprecipitation, respectively. Effect of suppression of Li-cadherin expression on cell migration, invasion, and adhesion was detected by wound healing assay, migration assay, invasion assay, and adhesion assay. Expression and activity of MMP-2 and MMP-9 were analyzed by gelatin zymography.

resultsCell migration, invasion, and adhesion were increased concomitantly with the reduction in Li-cadherin protein expression. Furthermore, downregulation of Li-cadherin expression induced secretion of proMMP-9, active MMP-9 and active MMP-2.

conclusionsThis study suggests that silencing Li-cadherin has positive actions in the processes of LoVo cells invasion and metastasis, and the interactions among MMP-2, MMP-9, and Li-cadherin participate in the multiple steps of invasion and metastasis in LoVo colorectal cancer cells.
