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

The aberrant DNA methylation of the tumor suppressor genes involved in DNA Damage Response (DDR) signaling and cell cycle regulation may lead to the tumorigenesis. Our purpose here is to analyze the promoter methylation and mRNA expression levels of LATS1 and LATS2 (LATS1/2) genes in OSCC. Promoter methylation status of LATS1/2 genes was evaluated in 70 OSCC paraffin-embedded tissues and 70 normal oral samples, using Methylation Specific PCR (MSP). LATS1/2 mRNA expression profiles were also investigated in 14 OSCC patients and 14 normal samples, using real-time PCR. In both candidate genes, promoter methylation assessment revealed significant relationship between cases and controls (OR = 2.24, 95 % CI = 1.40-3.54, P = 0.001; LATS1 and OR = 15.5, 95%CI = 3.64-64.76, P < 0.001; LATS2). As well as, the evaluation of mRNA expression levels showed decreased expression in OSCC tissues in compare to control tissues. (Mean ± SD 1.74 ± 0.14 in OSCC versus 2.10 ± 0.24 in controls, P < 0.001; LATS1 and Mean ± SD 1.36 ± 0.077 in OSCC versus 1.96 ± 0.096 in controls, P < 0.001; LATS2). To the best our knowledge, this is the first report regarding the down-regulation of LATS1/2 through promoter methylation in OSCC. It is suggested to explore the down-stream transcription factors of both genes for finding the molecular mechanism of this deregulation in OSCC.
