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

MED19 is a subunit of Mediator that is an essential component of RNA polymerase II-mediated transcription machinery. High expression levels of MED19 were examined in human lung adenocarcinoma tissues by immunohistochemical assay. MED19-specific short hairpin RNA (shRNA) expressing lentivirus was constructed and infected lung cancer cell line A549. MED19 mRNA and protein expression levels were downregulated in A549 cells as evidenced by real-time PCR and western blot assays. Importantly, MED19 inhibition resulted in impaired proliferation and colony formation, and induced accumulation of G1-phase cells and mitigated invasiveness of cells. More importantly, downregulation of MED19 expression reduced the tumorigenicity of A549 cells in vivo. It was suggested that MED19 is a novel proliferation regulator that promotes growth of lung cancer cells, thereby indicating that MED19 may serve as a new molecular target for lung cancer therapy.
