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

Melanoma has an extremely poor prognosis due to its rapidly progressive and highly metastatic nature. Several therapeutic drugs have recently become available, but are effective only against melanoma with specific BRAF gene mutation. Thus, there is a need to identify other target molecules. We show here that Transient receptor potential, canonical 3 (TRPC3) is widely expressed in human melanoma. We found that pharmacological inhibition of TRPC3 with a pyrazole compound, Pyr3, decreased melanoma cell proliferation and migration. Similar inhibition was observed when the TRPC3 gene was silenced with short-hairpin RNA (shRNA). Pyr3 induced dephosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) 5 and Akt. Administration of Pyr3 (0.05 mg/kg) to mice implanted with human melanoma cells (C8161) significantly inhibited tumor growth. Our findings indicate that TRPC3 plays an important role in melanoma growth, and may be a novel target for treating melanoma in patients.
