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

Metastasis in lung cancer has been recognized as an important cause of high mortality. Resistance to anoikis and the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) are critical factors for the successful spread of cancer cells. Compounds that suppress these features of cancer cells should be potentially active for anti-metastasis approaches. We have demonstrated for the first time that moscatilin, at its non-toxic concentrations to lung cancer cells and human normal keratinocytes, significantly decreases lung cancer cell survival in the detached condition, and suppresses the formation of tumors in an anchorage-independent growth assay. Furthermore, we found that moscatilin significantly decreased the activated level of survival proteins, namely ERK and Akt. In addition, moscatilin down-regulated cavelolin-1 (Cav-1), leading to a reduction in anti-apoptotic Mcl-1 protein. In terms of EMT, treatment of the cells with moscatilin significantly suppressed mesenchymal cell markers, namely vimentin, Slug, and Snail. These results indicate that moscatilin inhibited anoikis resistance in lung cancer cells via survival suppression, Cav-1 down-regulation, and inhibition of EMT. The compound could therefore be beneficial for the treatment and prevention of lung cancer metastasis.
