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

Downregulation of CKLF-like MARVEL transmembrane domain-containing member 3 (CMTM3) has been reported in a number of human tumors. However, the role of CMTM3 in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) remains largely unknown. In this study, we showed that the expression of CMTM3 was significantly reduced in OSCC cell lines and primary tumor specimens (P < 0.001). Methylation-specific PCR showed hypermethylation in CMTM3 promoter in a significant proportion of tumor tissues (61 %). The expression of CMTM3 was associated with T stage, lymph node metastasis, tumor node metastasis (TNM) stage, and recurrence of OSCC patients (P < 0.05, n = 201). More importantly, CMTM3 expression was associated with the prognosis of OSCC patients (P < 0.001) and was an independent prognostic factor (hazard ratio = 0.593, 95 % confidence interval, 0.272-1.292; P = 0.039). Overexpression of CMTM3 inhibited the growth and migration of OSCC cells. In vivo experiments also showed that the growth of OSCC xenografts in nude mice was significantly inhibited by CMTM3 overexpression. These findings indicate that downregulation of CMTM3 due to promoter hypermethylation contributed to the proliferation and migration of OSCC cells and suggest that CMTM3 is an independent prognostic factor for the evaluation of the survival of OSCC patients.
