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

Stanniocalcin-l (STC-1) is a secreted glycoprotein hormone that regulates calcium and phosphate homeostasis. STC-1 expression is upregulated in several cancers including breast cancer, and has been shown to be prognostic. Although these clinical observations implicate STC-1 as a potential tumor marker, it is still unclear whether STC-1 confers a malignant phenotype. In this study, this question was addressed by overexpressing STC-1 in the human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 and examining the resultant phenotype in vitro and in vivo. Overexpression of STC-1 enhanced invasiveness of MDA-MB-231 cells in vitro and promoted their lung metastasis in vivo, while having no effect on proliferation, adhesion, or proteinase activity. The addition of soluble STC-1 to MDA-MB-231 cultures resulted in the activation of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt signaling pathway, suggesting a mechanistic basis for the observed increases in cell motility and metastasis. Taken together, it was indicated that secreted STC-1 promotes metastatic potential of breast cancer cells via activation of PI3K/AKT.
