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

G protein-coupled chemoattractant receptors (GPCRs) have been implicated in cancer progression. Formylpeptide receptor 1 (FPR1) was originally identified as a GPCR mediating anti-microbial host defense. However, the role of FPR1 in tumorigenesis remains poorly understood. The current study aims to investigate the potential of FPR1 to regulate human hepatoma growth and invasion. We found the FPR1 gene and protein expression in human intratumoral and peritumoral tissues of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) specimens and in human hepatoma cell lines. FPR1 activation mediated the migration, calcium mobilization and ERK-dependent IL-8 production by hepatic cancer cells. FPR1 knockdown substantially reduced the tumorigenicity of hepatoma cells in nude mice. Necrotic hepatic tumor cells released factor(s) that activated FPR1 in live tumor cells. Our results indicate a critical role of FPR1 in the progression of malignant human hepatic cancer. FPR1 thus may represent a molecular target for the development of novel anti-hepatoma therapeutics.
