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 present study assessed the role of metastasis-associated protein 1 (MTA1) in epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) and metastasis in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells using a normal lung epithelium cell line, three NSCLC cell lines, a mouse NSCLC model, and 56 clinical NSCLC samples. We observed that MTA1 overexpression decreased cellular adhesion, promoted migration and invasion, and changed cytoskeletal polarity. MTA1 knockdown had the opposite effects. MTA1 overexpression decreased E-cadherin, Claudin-1, and ZO-1 levels and increased Vimentin expression in vitro and in vivo, through activation of AKT/GSK3β/β-catenin signaling. However, treatment with the AKT inhibitor MK2206 did not completely rescue effects associated with MTA1 expression changes, indicating that pathways other than the AKT/GSK3β/β-catenin pathway could be involved in MTA1-induced EMT. Compared with normal lung tissues, MTA1 expression was elevated in NSCLC patient tissues and was correlated with American Joint Committee on Cancer stage, T stage, lymphatic metastasis, and patient overall survival. Additionally, MTA1 expression was positively associated with p-AKT and cytoplasmic β-catenin levels. These findings indicate MTA1 promotes NSCLC cell EMT and metastasis via AKT/GSK3β/β-catenin signaling, which suggests MTA1 may be an effective anti-NSCLC therapeutic target.
