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

Motility-related protein-1 (CD9), a type of cell surface glycoprotein comprising a four-pass transmembrane domain that forms multimeric complexes with other cell surface proteins, belongs to the tetraspanins family. From previous studies, we know that CD9 is considered to function primarily as a progression and metastasis suppressor in a variety of cancers, including breast, non-small cell lung colon and myeloma. However, an expanding body of literature has shown the contradictory outcome that tetraspanin CD9 is also vital in promoting cancer progression in several types of cancer. This review summarizes the recent studies on CD9 and concludes that it does not always act as a progression and metastasis suppressor. Conversely, in specific cases, CD9 may promote tumor progression through the following three aspects: Facilitating tumor cell transmigration, increasing tumor cell motility and hastening the growth of some cancers. In addition, CD9 appears to be an important marker of cancer stem cells in certain types of tumor.
