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

B cell translocation gene 2 (BTG2) has been reported to be a potential tumor suppressor in many types of tumors. However, the roles and molecular mechanisms of BTG2 in osteosarcoma progression are still unknown. In this study, we investigated the role of BTG2 in proliferation and metastasis of osteosarcoma and the underlying mechanism. BTG2 expression levels were measured in fresh osteosarcoma tissues and cell lines. The effects of BTG2 on cell proliferation, migration and invasion were explored by MTT, transwell assays, western blot, and in vivo tumorigenesis in nude mice. We found that BTG2 was down-regulated in human osteosarcoma tissues and cell lines. Overexpression of BTG2 inhibited the proliferation and migration/invasion of human osteosarcoma cells in vitro, it also markedly inhibited xenograft tumor growth in vivo. Furthermore, BTG2 significantly decreased the expression of phosphorylated PI3K and AKT in osteosarcoma cells. Taken together, our data indicate that BTG2 might suppress the tumor growth and metastasis via PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, implying that BTG2 may serve as a potential molecular target for the treatment of osteosarcoma.
