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

CUGBP1, which is involved in posttranscriptional regulatory networks, may control cell growth, activation and differentiation. Meanwhile, CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein α (C/EBPα) acts as a basic leucine zipper transcription factor which controls differentiation-dependent gene expression and inhibits cell proliferation. To date, very little is known about the association between CUGBP 1 and C/EBPα in regulating cell proliferation and apoptosis in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). CUGBP1 and C/EBPα mRNA expressions were analyzed in NSCLC tumor and adjacent normal tissues, and the relationship in clinicopathological parameters was evaluated. Knockdown of CUGBP1 and C/EBPα regulated by CUGBP1 in NSCLC cell line was identified by real-time PCR and Western blot. The effect of depletion of CUGBP1 was evaluated by MTT assay and Annexin/Propidium Iodide Apoptosis assay. CUGBP1 is highly expressed and expression of C/EBPα is low in NSCLC tissues. The correlation analysis revealed that there was negative correlation between the expression of CUGBP 1 and C/EBPα. Knockdown of CUGBP1 effectively silenced the expression of CUGBP1 and up-regulated C/EBPα. Also, suppression of CUGBP1 inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis in A549 cells. These observations suggest that the first proof the overexpression of CUGBP1 in NSCLC contributes to tumorigenesis through down-regulation of C/EBPα. Knockdown of CUGBP1 or up-regulation C/EBPα might be a potential therapeutic approach for human non-small cell lung cancers.
