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

Loss of apico-basal polarity often results in a malignant phenotype in epithelial tissues. Aberrant expression of polarity mediator proteins is closely associated with this process. LRRC1/LANO, a putative cell polarity regulator, was previously screened from our gene expression profiling in which its expression was significantly upregulated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In the present study, we provide evidences that LRRC1 plays a potential oncogenic function in HCC. Consistent with the microarray data, quantitative real-time PCR results showed LRRC1 was aberrantly upregulated in 37/56 (66.1 %, more than twofolds) of HCC specimens compared with adjacent non-cancerous livers. Furthermore, the cellular expression of LRRC1 in all HCC cell lines examined exhibited much higher level than that in normal adult liver tissue. Functional analyses revealed that overexpression of LRRC1 promoted, while knockdown of LRRC1 by RNA interference inhibited the growth and colony formation of HCC cells. Importantly, enhanced expression of LRRC1 conferred NIH3T3 cells the ability of cell transformation. In a xenograft tumor model, we found LRRC1 overexpression increased the tumorigenicity of HCC cells. Thus, our collective findings suggest that LRRC1 contributes to HCC development, and may be a potential target for therapeutic intervention in this disease.
