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

Rab5a is a regulatory guanosine triphosphatase that is associated with the transport and fusion of endocytic vesicles, and participates in regulation of intracellular signaling pathways embraced by cells to adapt to the specific environment. Rab5a is also correlated with lung, stomach, and hepatocellular carcinomas. Here, we detected Rab5a in paraffin-embedded samples of 20 ovarian cysts, 20 benign cystadenomas, and 39 ovarian cancers by immunohistochemistry, and observed that Rab5a expression was significantly higher in ovarian cancer (P = 0.0001). By setting up stable HO-8910 cell lines expressing Rab5a or dominant negative Rab5a (Rab5a:S34N), we found that Rab5a overexpression enhanced the cell growth by promoting G1 into S phase. In contrast, Rab5a:S34N inhibited this process. Additionally, APPL1 (adaptor protein containing PH domain, PTB domain, and Leucine zipper motif), a downstream effector of Rab5a, was also involved in promoting HO-8910 cell cycle progress. But this function was blocked by Rab5a:S34N. Laser scanning confocal microscopy represented the colocalization of APPL1 and Rab5a in the plasmolemma, which changed with the time of epidermal growth factor (EGF) stimulation. We also found APPL1 could transfer from the membranes into the nucleus where it interacted with NuRD/MeCP1 (the nucleosome remodeling and histone deacetylase multiprotein complex). NuRD is reported to be involved in the deacetylation of histone H3 and H4 to regulate nuclear transcription. So Rab5a promoted proliferation of ovarian cancer cells, which may be associated with the APPL1-related epidermal growth factor signaling pathway.
