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

In a previous study, we found that ERGIC3 was a novel lung cancer-related gene by screening libraries of differentially expressed genes. In this study, we developed a new murine monoclonal antibody (mAb) against ERGIC3. This avid antibody (6-C4) is well suited for immunohistochemistry, immunoblotting and solid-phase immunoassays. Furthermore, we systematically investigated expressions of ERGIC3 in a broad variety of normal human tissues and various types of tumors by immunohistochemistry. In normal human tissues, 6-C4 reacted only in some epithelial cells, such as hepatocytes, gastrointestinal epithelium, ducts and acini of the pancreas, proximal and distal tubules of the kidney, and mammary epithelial cells; however, most normal human tissues were not stained. Moreover, almost all carcinomas that originated from the epithelial cells were positive for 6-C4, whereas all sarcomas were negative. Notably, 6-C4 strongly stained non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells but did not react with normal lung tissues. Hence, ERGIC3 mAb could be used in histopathological diagnosis and cytopathological testing to detect early-stage NSCLC. We also studied the mechanisms of ERGIC3 regulation in vitro and in vivo by means of bioinformatics analysis, luciferase reporter assay, miRNA expression profiling and miRNA transfection. Results showed that miR-203a downregulation induced ERGIC3 overexpression in NSCLC cells.
