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

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) represent a potential therapeutic target for glioma. We determined the molecular mechanism of inhibitory effect of human umbilical cord-derived MSCs (hUC-MSCs) on the growth of C6 glioma cells. We demonstrated that hUC-MSCs inhibited C6 cell growth and modulated the cell cycle to G0/G1 phase. The expression of β-catenin and c-Myc was downregulated in C6 cells by conditioned media from hUC-MSCs, and the levels of secreted DKK1 were positively correlated with concentrations of hUCMSCs-CM. The inhibitory effect of hUC-MSCs on C6 cell proliferation was enhanced as the concentration of DKK1 in hUCMSCs-CM increased. When DKK1 was neutralized by anti-DKK1 antibody, the inhibitory effect of hUC-MSCs on C6 cells was attenuated. Furthermore, we found that conditioned media from hUC-MSCs transfection with siRNA targeting DKK1 mRNA or pEGFPN1-DKK1 plasmid lost or enhanced the abilities to regulate the Wnt signaling in C6 cells. Therefore, hUC-MSCs inhibited C6 glioma cell growth via secreting DKK1, an inhibitor of Wnt pathway, may represent a novel therapeutic strategy for malignant glioma.
