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

The mixed lineage leukemia 3 (MLL3), a member of the mixed lineage leukemia (MLL) family, has been reported to be mutated in multiple cancer types. However, its function in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) remains poorly understood. Here, we found that the expression of MLL3 was downregulated in ESCC tissues. Moreover, over-expression of MLL3 in ESCC cells inhibited cell proliferation and migration, while the knockdown expression of MLL3 promoted the tumorigenicity of ESCC cells. Mechanistically, MLL3 regulated the expression of multiple growth-related and migration-related genes. Taken together, our study suggested that downregulation of MLL3 was very important in the progression of ESCC.
