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

Osteosarcoma is the most bone-associated malignancy with high lethality. The current therapeutic strategy benefits little on the survival of patients. Studies have shown that aberrant activation of Wnt/β-catenin pathway is essential for the progression of osteosarcoma, implying that targeting this signaling may be an effective way of therapeutics. Recently, TIKI family has been identified as a new class of negative regulators for Wnt/β-catenin pathway. However, the implication of TIKIs with osteosarcoma has not been explored. Here, we constructed an adenoviral vector that expresses TIKI2 in osteosarcoma cells (Ad-TIKI2). TIKI2 expression was found to be reduced in osteosarcoma specimens and cell lines. In tested osteosarcoma cells, the activation of Wnt/β-catenin pathway was found to be inhibited by TIKI2 expression. Furthermore, the proliferation, colony formation ability, and invasion were all significantly suppressed in osteosarcoma cells infected with Ad-TIKI2. Finally, animal experiments further confirmed that TIKI2 restoration was able to inhibit the growth of osteosarcoma in vivo. Taken together, we provided evidence that reduced expression of TIKI family protein in osteosarcoma may participate in the progression of osteosarcoma and restoring its expression was able to impair the growth of osteosarcoma.
