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

TERE1/UBIAD1 is involved in SCCD (Schnyder crystalline corneal dystrophy) and multiple human cancers. So far, the molecular mechanism of TERE1/UBIAD1 in tumourigenesis is unclear. Here, the expression levels of hTERT and TERE1/UBIAD1 in pathologically proven Chinese TCC (transitional cell carcinoma) samples were measured. It was found that decreased TERE1/UBIAD1 expression is closely related to both an increased hTERT expression and activation of Ras-MAPK signalling. Chemically modified TERE1 siRNA oligos were used to knock down TERE1 expression in human L02 cells. Cells transfected with TERE1 siRNA oligos underwent significant cell proliferation. When the levels of hTERT expression and ERK phosphorylation were measured, it was found that both of them increased in the above transfected cells, suggesting the activation of Ras-MAPK signalling. Addition of the MEK inhibitor U0126 into the transfected L02 cells described above inhibited ERK phosphorylation and hTERT expression. Our result is the initial demonstration that down-regulation of TERE1 activates Ras-MAPK signalling and induces subsequent cell proliferation. TERE1 might be a new negative regulator of Ras-MAPK signalling, which plays a pivotal role in the cell proliferation of multiple human cancers.
