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

Axin is an important negative regulator of Wnt pathway. We have reported that reduced expression of Axin could be detected in lung cancer tissues, but the mechanism is not clear. By analyzing the genomic sequence, we note that Axin gene promoter is rich in CpGs. Little is known about the methylation status of Axin gene in lung cancer. So, nested MSP and RT-PCR were used to study the methylation status and mRNA expression of Axin gene in lung cancer tissues and cell lines. The results showed that hypermethylated Axin gene promoter and reduced mRNA expression level of Axin could be detected in lung cancer tissues but not in their paired autologous normal lung tissues (P < 0.01). The hypermethylated Axin gene promoter significantly correlated with the degree of differentiation (P = 0.03), lymph node metastasis (P = 0.048) and TNM classifications (P = 0.032). Demethylation reagent 5-aza-2-deoxycytidine significantly up-regulate Axin expression in BE1 cells (with hypermethylated Axin gene promoter) but not in H460 cells (with unmethylated Axin gene promoter). MTT (3(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) and transwell matrigel invasion assay showed that 5-aza-2-deoxycytidine treatment inhibited cell growth and invasion more significantly in BE1 cells than that in H460 cells. Our data indicate that hypermethylated Axin gene significantly correlates with the progression of lung cancer and might serve as a new target of clinical therapy for lung cancer patients in future.
