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

PFTK1 (PFTAIRE protein kinase 1), also named CDK14 (cyclin-dependent kinase 14), is a member of the cell division cycle 2 (CDC2)-related protein kinase family. It is highly expressed in several malignant tumors. However, the role of PFTK1 in the progression of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is still elusive. In this study, we aimed to explore the expression and function of PFTK1 in NSCLC cells. Our results showed that PFTK1 was significantly upregulated in human NSCLC cell lines. Silencing the expression of PFTK1 inhibited the proliferation of NSCLC cells. In addition, silencing the expression of PFTK1 endowed NSCLC cells with decreased migration and invasion abilities, as well as epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) progress in A549 cells. A mechanistic study showed that knockdown of PFTK1 inhibited the expression of β-catenin, cyclin D1, and c-Myc in A549 cells. In summary, we report that small interfering RNA (siRNA)-PFTK1 might inhibit the proliferation and invasion of NSCLC cells by suppressing the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. Therefore, PFTK1 may represent a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of NSCLC.
