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

Ubiquitin-specific protease 14 (USP14), one of three proteasome-associated deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs), plays an essential role in the development of human carcinoma. However, to the best of our knowledge, the role of USP14 in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is unknown. In the current study, we investigated the expression and role of USP14 in ESCC. Our results showed that the level of USP14 was significantly increased in ESCC tissues and cell lines. Downregulation of USP14 significantly inhibited ESCC cell proliferation and ESCC tumor growth in nude mice. Downregulation of USP14 also suppressed the migration/invasion in ESCC cells. Mechanically, downregulation of USP14 decreased the protein expression levels of β-catenin, cyclin D1, and c-Myc in ESCC cells. In conclusion, our study shows that USP14 plays an important role in the progression and metastasis of ESCC. Therefore, these data suggest that USP14 may be a potentially useful therapeutic strategy for the treatment of ESCC.
