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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsThe nuclear localization of β-catenin, a mediator of canonical Wnt signaling, has been indicated in a variety of cancers and is frequently related to tumor progression and metastasis. Therefore, targeting β-catenin is an attractive therapeutic strategy for cancers.

methodsHerein, we identified a natural, small molecule inhibitor of β-catenin signaling, BASI, and evaluated its therapeutic efficacy both in vitro and in orthotopic mouse models of glioma.

resultsBASI significantly suppressed proliferation and invasion and induced apoptosis in glioblastoma cells and resulted in the remarkable attenuation of orthotopic tumor growth in vivo. Furthermore, we found that BASI altered the expression of several microRNAs, which mediated the posttranscriptional silencing of β-catenin expression either directly or indirectly through a von Hippel-Lindau (VHL)-mediated β-catenin degradation pattern.

conclusionsTaken together, our findings offer preclinical validation of BASI as a promising new type of β-catenin inhibitor with a mechanism of inhibition that has broad potential for the improved treatment of glioblastoma.
