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

Ribosomal protein L22 (RPL22), an RNA-binding protein, is a constituent of the 60S large ribosomal subunit. As reported, RPL22 is not required in protein synthesis, and mutations of RPL22 were the main cause of macrolide resistance in bacteria. In vertebrates, RPL22 mutation might increase the proliferation of cells and then increase cancer risk. However, to our knowledge, RPL22 has not been implicated in any lung diseases, especially in lung cancer. In this study, we compared the expression of RPL22 gene in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tissues, plasma as well as human lung cancer cell line LTEP-a-2 with that in normal lung tissues and cells, using real-time RT-qPCR, Western blot, quantitative immunohistochemistry analysis, and ELISA. Our studies showed that the expression of RPL22 was significantly down-regulated in mRNA and protein expression level in NSCLC; however, there was no significant difference of RPL22 levels in plasma between normal and NSCLC patients. Further analysis indicated that down-regulation of RPL22 might be involved in the carcinogenesis of NSCLC, yet not an effective biomarker in plasma for early diagnosis.
