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

Accumulating evidence has implicated that constitutive activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription protein 3 (STAT3) may be a major oncogenic factor involved in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development. Gene associated with retinoid-interferon-induced mortality-19 (GRIM-19) has been shown to be a tumor suppressor associated with growth control and suppression of STAT3 activity. The downregulation of GRIM-19 expression has been shown in a number of human tumor types, and it has been correlated with hyperactivation of STAT3. However, the role of GRIM-19 in the pathogenesis of HCC has not been evaluated. The aim of our study was to evaluate GRIM-19 expression levels and investigate their correlation with phosphorylated STAT3 (p-STAT3) levels in HCC. GRIM-19 and p-STAT3 expression levels were analyzed in HCC and adjacent nontumorous liver tissues (ANLT) by immunohistochemistry, western blot analysis, and RT-PCR. GRIM-19 protein expression was predominantly located in the cytoplasm with weak staining in the nucleus in ANLT, but only located in the cytoplasm in HCC tissues. HCC samples exhibited low levels of GRIM-19 and moderate to high levels of p-STAT3 expression. In contrast, ANLT was characterized by high levels of GRIM-19 and low levels of p-STAT3 expression. Downregulation of GRIM-19 was closely correlated with increased histological grade in HCC. GRIM-19 expression is closely correlated with histological grading and p-STAT3 in HCC. Thus, the potential role of GRIM-19 in HCC development may be through these correlations.
