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

backgroundEsophageal carcinoma is one of the main malignancies in China. Previous studies indicated that matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play important roles in the process of tumor invasion and metastasis in several types of solid tumors. Among all of the MMPs, MMP-2 is one of the MMPs closely associated with tumor invasion. In this study, we suppressed MMP-2 expression with RNA interference and then observed inhibitory effects on the invasion and migration of the esophageal carcinoma cell line KYSE150.

methodsThree target sequences were selected and siRNA against MMP-2 mRNA were synthesized. After being transfected by the transfection complexes, the MMP-2 expression of KYSE150 cells, which overexpresses MMP-2, were examined by Western blot analysis and real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Cell migration and invasion were measured with migration assay and Boyden chamber assays, respectively.

resultsRNAi against MMP-2 successfully inhibited the mRNA and protein expression of MMP-2 in the esophageal carcinoma cell line KYSE150. MMP-2 knockdown inhibited the invasion and migration of esophageal carcinoma cell line KYSE150.

conclusionsThese findings suggested that the RNAi approach towards MMP-2 may be a potentially effective therapeutic method for the treatment of esophageal carcinoma.
