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

backgroundCD164 (endolyn), a sialomucin, has been reported to play a role in the proliferation, adhesion, and differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells. The potential association of CD164 with tumorigenicity remains unclear.

methodsThe clinicopathological correlation of ovarian cancer with CD164 was assessed in a 97-patient tumor tissue microarray. Overexpression or silence CD164 was to analyze the effect of CD164 on the proliferation, colony formation and apoptosis via a mouse xenograft and western blotting analysis. The subcellular localization of CD164 was collected in the immunohistochemical and confocal analysis.

resultsOur data demonstrated that higher expression levels of CD164 were identified in malignant ovarian cancer cell lines, such as SKOV3 and HeyA8. The clinicopathological correlation analysis showed that the upregulation of CD164 protein was significantly associated with tumor grade and metastasis. The overexpression of CD164 in human ovarian epithelial surface cells promoted cellular proliferation and colony formation and suppressed apoptosis. These tumorigenicity effects of CD164 were reconfirmed in a mouse xenograft model. We also found that the overexpression of CD164 proteins increased the amounts of CXCR4 and SDF-1α and activated the SDF-1α/CXCR4 axis, inducing colony and sphere formation. Finally, we identified the subcellular localization of CD164 in the nucleus and cytosol and found that nuclear CD164 might be involved in the regulation of the activity of the CXCR4 promoter.

conclusionsOur findings suggest that the increased expression of CD164 is involved in ovarian cancer progression via the SDF-1α/CXCR4 axis, which promotes tumorigenicity. Thus, targeting CD164 may serve as a potential ovarian cancer biomarker, and targeting CD164 may serve as a therapeutic modality in the management of high-grade ovarian tumors.
