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

Our recent study, by up-regulation of AQP5 expression, showed enhanced proliferation and migration potential in lung cancer. However, so far none of the in vivo study of gene silencing of AQP5 has been tested. In this study, we tested roles of AQP5 on lung cancer metastasis potential by gene silencing of AQP5 in two lung cancer cell lines and tried to monitor lung metastases with EGFP marker. Lungs were imaged at different time points and allowed an accurate evaluation of tumor burden over time. Our results showed significantly decreased metastasis potential in AQP5 gene-silencing cells. Lung imaging confirmed the frequency of metastasis in mice. These data provide more evidence that AQP5 plays important roles in the metastasis potential of lung cancer. Lung fluorescence imaging provides rapid monitoring for tumor growth and metastasis, and it also offers quantitative and sensitive analysis of tumor growth and metastasis, compared to the traditional histology technique.
