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

Overexpression of vascular endothelial growth factor-C (VEGF-C) has been implicated as a critical molecular signal in tumor development by promoting intratumoral lymphangiogenesis. The aim of this study was to explore whether small hairpin RNA (shRNA) targeting VEGF-C could inhibit gastric cancer lymphangiogenesis and tumor growth. Plasmid-mediated expression of VEGF-C-shRNA was employed to silence VEGF-C gene expression in human SGC-7901 cell lines. The inhibition of the target gene expression was quantified by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction, Western blotting, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. In vitro, the cell viability was determined by MTT assay, flow cytometry analysis, and migration assay. After VEGF-C knockdown was confirmed, the stable cells were inoculated into nude mice. Tumor growth, lymph vessel density (LVD), and microvascular density were compared for mice administered either VEGF-C-shRNA or control. VEGF-C-shRNA causes effective and specific downregulation of VEGF-C expression (P<0.05). The migration activity of SGC-7901 cells was attenuated in vitro (P<0.05). Tumor growth rate and LVD was suppressed in vivo (P<0.05). VEGF-C-shRNA effectively suppressed gastric cancer cell migration in vivo, retards tumorigenicity, and lymphangiogenesis in nude mice.
