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

backgroundThe forkhead box M1 (FOXM1) transcription factor plays an important role in the metastases of many cancers. Down-regulation of FOXM1 by its inhibitor, thiostrepton, can inhibit the metastatic potential of some cancers; however, there are few studies regarding the functional significance of FOXM1 and thiostrepton in the metastases of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and the underlying mechanism.

methodsExpression of FOXM1 in NPC, normal nasopharyngeal tissues, a NPC cell line (C666-1), and a nasopharyngeal epithelial cell line (NP69) was investigated by immunohistochemical staining, qRT-PCR, and Western blot. The correlation between FOXM1 expression and the clinical characteristics of patients was analyzed. Moreover, the effects of thiostrepton on expression of FOXM1 in C666-1 and NP69 cells, and the invasion and migration ability of C666-1 cells were examined. The expressions of MMP-2, MMP-9, fascin-1, ezrin, and paxillin were determined after treatment with thiostrepton.

resultsFOXM1 was overexpressed in NPC and C666-1 cells compared with normal nasopharyngeal tissues and NP69 cells. Overexpression of FOXM1 was associated with lymph node metastasis and advanced tumor stage. Moreover, thiostrepton inhibited expression of FOXM1 in C666-1 cells in a dose-dependent manner, but had a minimal effect on NP69 cells. Thiostrepton inhibited the migration and invasion ability of C666-1 cells by down-regulating the expression of MMP-2, MMP-9, fascin-1, and paxillin.

conclusionsOverexpression of FOXM1 is associated with metastases of NPC patients. Thiostrepton inhibits the metastatic ability of NPC cells by down-regulating the expression of FOXM1, MMP-2, MMP-9, fascin-1, and paxillin.
