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

Sex-determining region Y-related high-mobility group box 4 (SOX4) has been proven to serve as a critical role in cancer progression. However, the pathological role of SOX4 in colorectal cancer (CRC) remains unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of SOX4 in CRC. In this study, we investigated the expression of SOX4 in CRC tissues by immunohistochemistry, quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), and Western blot. We also evaluated the effect of SOX4 on cell proliferation and invasion by 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) and transwell assay. The SOX4 messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein expression were markedly higher in CRC tissues compared with adjacent normal mucosa tissues. Inhibition of SOX4 could suppress CRC cell proliferation, and invasion in vitro. Our findings indicate that targeting SOX4 might provide a new therapeutic modality for the treatment of CRC patients.
