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

Studies have showed the involvement of ubiquitin-like with PHD and RING finger domains 1 (UHRF1) in tumorigenesis and progression. This study focused on the relationships between UHRF1 and medulloblastoma (MB). Immunostaining and western blotting demonstrated differential expression of UHRF1 in MB tissues and no UHRF1 expression in normal cerebellum tissues. Univariate survival analysis revealed MB patients with high UHRF1 expression had significantly shorter OS and PFS than patients with low UHRF1 (OS p = 0.009, PFS p = 0.003). Multivariate analysis illustrated that UHRF1 expression level is an independent prognostic factor influencing the OS and PFS (OS p = 0.038, PFS p = 0.014). UHRF1 expression levels were significantly different among molecular subgroups of MB (p = 0.003). Down-regulation of UHRF1 by RNAi inhibited proliferation and clonogenic ability of MB cell lines with cell cycle arrest in G1/G2-phase. Meanwhile, cells transfected with lenti-shUHRF1 showed increased p16 expression and location shift of CDK4 in MB cells. These findings indicate UHRF1 may promote cell proliferation and be a potential biomarker that can be used as a prognostic parameter and a therapeutic target for MB.
