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

Ezrin-radixin-moesin (ERM)-binding phosphoprotein 50 (EBP50) has previously been demonstrated to be associated with the malignant transformation of numerous types of human cancer. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of EBP50 overexpression on pancreatic cancer and the underlying mechanism. Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the expression of EBP50 in human pancreatic cancer tissue specimens. Furthermore, pBK-CMV-HA-EBP50 and the pBK-CMV-HA vectors were transfected into pancreatic cancer cells and the effect of EBP50 upregulation on the proliferation and invasion of the cells was investigated. In addition, the effect of EBP50 overexpression on β-catenin and E-cadherin expression was evaluated. The results revealed that overexpression of EBP50 suppressed cell growth and invasion in two human pancreatic cancer cell lines. Overexpression of EBP50 also suppressed β-catenin expression and increased E-cadherin expression. Thus, the present study demonstrated that EBP50 inhibits pancreatic cancer cell growth and invasion through targeting the β-catenin/E-cadherin pathway. The results suggest that EBP50 may function as a potential tumor suppressor and thus may serve as a potential therapeutic target.
