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

The receptor for hyaluronan (HA)-mediated motility (RHAMM) is a HA-binding protein located in the cytoskeleton and centrosome. RHAMM has multiple functions that manifest with different cellular localizations, for example, modulation of growth factor receptor, regulation of cell signaling pathways, and mitotic spindle assembly. In addition, its increased expression has major roles in tumorigenesis and can induce genomic instability and cancer progression. In head and neck cancers, increased expression of RHAMM is associated with high proliferation of cancer cells and decreased survival. CD44, a cell-adhesion molecule and HA receptor, can modulate intracellular signaling by forming complexes with RHAMM to promote invasion and metastasis of cancer cells. In this review, we provide an overview of the biological functions of RHAMM in non-neoplastic cells and cancer cells, as well as its association with CD44, and also introduce studies that particularly implicate RHAMM in the pathogenesis of head and neck cancers.
