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

objectTrop2 plays an important role in proliferation and invasion of tumors. Extensive research has shown that the expression level of Trop2 is closely related to the progress of cervical diseases. This study was to explore the effects of Trop2 on cell proliferation and apoptosis in cervical cancer.

methodsTrop2 was knocked down by shRNA in CaSki cells. The expression level of mRNA and protein was detected by real-time PCR and western blot, respectively. Cell proliferation was determined by CCK-8 and clone formation assay; apoptosis was measured by flow cytometry; cell cycle and apoptosis-related proteins cyclinD1, P53, bcl-2, bax, caspase 3, 8 and 9 were analyzed as well to investigate possible mechanism.

resultsTrop2 expression was effectively repressed in CaSki cells by Trop2 shRNA, which resulted in inhibition of proliferation and colony formation, whereas apoptosis rate was significantly increased. Furthermore, in Trop2 knockdown CaSki cells, the expression of cyclinD1 and bcl-2 was significantly down-regulated, while that of P53 and bax was up-regulated accompanied by increased activities of caspase 9 and 3 but not caspase 8.

conclusionsTrop2 is important in proliferation and apoptosis regulation in CaSki cells, which may become a novel target for cervical cancer treatment.
