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

Esophageal cancer is one of the most aggressive malignancies and has been ranked as the sixth leading cause of cancer-related death in the world. It is very urgent to find new therapeutic targets. Although tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) was initially identified as an adaptor for NF-κB signaling, recently it has been found to be involved in cancer by modulating various signaling pathways. In the previous study, we have found that TRAF6 promoted the growth of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cell in vitro and in vivo. However, the effects of TRAF6 on the migration and metastasis of ESCC cells are poorly understood. Here, we found that TRAF6 promoted migration and metastasis of ESCC cells through modulating Ras signaling. Overexpression of TRAF6 promoted the migration of ESCC cells and immortalized esophageal epithelial cells, while knock down the expression of TRAF6 inhibited the migration and metastasis of ESCC cells in vitro and in vivo. Mechanically, TRAF6 binds Ras with its N-terminal and activated Ras signaling. Taken together, TRAF6 played an important role in the metastasis of ESCC and might be a promising therapeutic target.
