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

3-Phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase 1 (PDK1) is centrally involved in cancer progression, including proliferation, apoptosis and invasion. However, its expression pattern and possible cellular functions in human colorectal cancer remain unclear. In the present study, we show that PDK1 expression is up-regulated at both mRNA and protein levels in colorectal cancer clinical specimens and cell lines. Transient knockdown of PDK1 suppresses cellular growth, induces cellular apoptosis and causes abnormal cell cycle distribution. Meanwhile, decreased PDK1 level is closely associated with reduced Akt/cyclin D1 activity. Activating AKT activity and reintroducing cyclin D1 expression significantly compromised the oncogenic activity induced by PDK1. Together, our findings elucidate a key role for PDK1 in colorectal cellular functions trigged by the Akt/cyclin D1 pathway, thus providing a novel insight of PDK1 in colorectal carcinogenesis.
