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.
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
BACKGROUND AND
objectiveIt has been proven that tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) was a commonly amplified oncogene in lung cancer. However, the precise role of TRAF6 protein in lung cancer has not been extensively investigated. This study analyzed the effects of TRAF6 on the proliferation, apoptosis, cell cycle, migration, and invasion capability of lung cancer cell lines, as well as the potential molecular mechanisms involved.
methodsTo address the expression of TRAF6 in lung cancer cells, four lung cancer cell lines (A549, H1650, SPC-A-1 and Calu-3) were assayed to determine the expression of TRAF6 protein by Western blot and TRAF6 mRNA via qRT-PCR. Moreover, siRNA targeting TRAF6 was introduced into SPC-A-1 and Calu-3 cells. Nuclear factor-қB (NF-қB) DNA-binding activity, apoptosis rates, cell proliferation, cell cycle, migration, and invasion were determined by electrophoretic mobility shift assay, flow cytometry, MTS assay, flow cytometry, scratch test, and transwell chamber assay, respectively. Western blot analysis was also performed to evaluate the expression of the following proteins through K63-ubiquitination: P65, CD24 and CXCR4. Whole-genome sequencing analysis was conducted using a second-generation sequencer in SPC-A-1 cells.
resultsTRAF6 was highly up-expressed in SPC-A-1 and Calu-3 cell lines than the other two cells, which also showed K63-ubiquitinization in TRAF6. However, constitutive activation of NF-қB was observed only in SPC-A-1 lung cancer cells. Downregulation of TRAF6 suppressed the NF-κB activation, cell migration, and invasion but promoted the cell apoptosis of SPC-A-1 cells. Markedly decreased expression of CD24 and CXCR4 was observed in SPC-A-1 cells transfected by TRAF6 siRNA. Nevertheless, TRAF6 downregulation did not affect the proliferation and cell cycle of SPC-A-1 cells. Additionally, TRAF6 regulation did not affect the proliferation, apoptosis, cell cycle, migration, and invasion of Calu-3 cells. No mutations and no changes in gene copy numbers of TRAF6 were found by whole-exome sequencing of SPC-A-1 cells.
conclusionsTRAF6 may be involved in cell migration, invasion, and apoptosis of SPC-A-1 cells, possibly through regulating the NF-қB-CD24/CXCR4 pathway. .
