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

backgroundMalignant glioma is the most lethal primary tumor of the central nervous system, with notable cell invasion causing significant recurrence. Suppression of glioma invasion is very important for improving clinical outcomes. Drugs that directly disrupt the cytoskeleton have been developed for this purpose; however, drug resistance and unsatisfactory selectivity have limited their clinical use. Previously, we reported that protein kinase A (PKA, also known as cyclic-AMP dependent protein kinase) activation induced the differentiation of glioma cells.

methodsWe used several small molecular inhibitors and RNA interference, combined with wound healing assays, Matrigel transwell assay, and microscopic observation, to determine whether activation of the PKA pathway could inhibit the invasion of human glioma cells.

resultsActivation of PKA decreased the invasion of glioma cells. The mechanism operated via transcriptional upregulation of microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2), which was activated by the PKA pathway and led to ossification of microtubule dynamics via polymerization of tubulin. This resulted in morphological changes and a reduction in glioma cell invasion. Furthermore, chromosome immunoprecipitation and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction showed that signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is involved in the transcriptional upregulation of MAP2.

conclusionOur findings suggested that PKA may represent a potential target for anti-invasion glioma therapy and that the downstream modulators (eg, STAT3/MAP2) partially mediate the effects of PKA.
