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

Notch signaling is important during the development of a variety of human tumors. Depending on the context, Notch signaling can be either oncogenic or anti‑proliferative, and therefore, its effects in cancer are unpredictable. The aim of the present study was to identify the importance of Notch 2 in the cell growth and metastasis of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). The current study performed quantum dots‑based immunofluorescence histochemistry to determine expression of Notch 2 in 72 LSCC samples without lymph node metastasis, 23 LSCC samples with lymph node metastasis and 31 samples from vocal cord polyps. It was observed that Notch 2 was upregulated in LSCC tissue compared with normal vocal cord polyps. This upregulation was further enhanced in LSCC tissues with lymph node metastasis compared with LSCC tissues without lymph node metastasis. Following knockdown of NOTCH2 expression in LSCC cells, the in vitro tumorigenicity of Hep‑2 cells was inhibited, with growth, migration, invasion and proliferation reduced, and apoptosis induced. Additionally, following downregulation of Notch 2 protein expression, the protein expression levels of phospho‑mitogen‑activated protein kinase 1 (p‑ERK), v‑myc avian myelocytomatosis viral oncogene homolog and B‑cell CLL/lymphoma 2 (Bcl2) were also downregulated, whereas, Bcl2‑associated X protein expression was upregulated. There were no changes detected in the protein expression levels of total‑ERK, phospho‑v‑akt murine thymoma viral oncogene homolog 1 (p‑Akt) and total‑Akt. The results of the present study suggest that Notch 2 is important for the cell growth, anti‑apoptosis and metastasis of LSCC. Therefore, Notch 2 inhibitors may have therapeutic potential for the treatment of patients with LSCC via the inhibition of cancer cell growth and metastasis.
