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

backgroundMediator complex subunit 19 (Med19) is a critical subunit of the mediator complex that forms a bridge between the transcription factors and RNA polymerase II. Although it has been reported that Med19 plays an important role in stabilizing the whole mediator complex, its biological importance in tongue cancer cell proliferation and migration has not been addressed.

methodsBy using MTT, BrdU incorporation, colony formation, flow cytometric, tumorigenesis and transwell assays, We tested the Med19 role on tongue cancer cell growth and migration.

resultsWe demonstrated that lentivirus-mediated Med19 knockdown could arrest tongue cancer cells at G1 phase, inhibit tongue cancer cell proliferation and migration in vitro. The tumorigenicity of Med19 short hairpin RNA (shRNA)-expressing lentivirus infected tongue cancer cells were decreased after inoculating into nude mice.

conclusionsThese results indicate that Med19 plays an important role in tongue cancer proliferation and migration, and suggest possible applications for tongue cancer therapy.
