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 aimed to observe the inhibitory effect and preliminary mechanism of exogenous mammalian sterile 20-like kinase 1 (MST1) on the growth of colorectal cancer SW480 cells. The SW480 cells were randomly divided into the following groups: Control, empty enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) plasmid (pEGFP-N1), MST1 EGFP plasmid (pEGFP-MST1), 20 µmol/l fluorouracil (5-FU) and pEGFP-MST1 + 5-FU. An MTS colorimetric assay was used to detect cell viability, Hoechst 33342 staining was used to observe cell apoptosis, and western blotting and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the levels of the proteins MST1, yes-associated protein (YAP), phospho-YAP1 (Ser127), p53 and p53 upregulated modulator of apoptosis (PUMA). In addition, nude mice were injected with SW480 cells to assess the tumor inhibition rates. Compared with the control group, the growth inhibition and apoptosis rates, the levels of MST1, p53 and PUMA, and the ratios of phospho-YAP1/YAP in the pEGFP-MST1 and pEGFP-MST1 + 5-FU groups were increased significantly (P<0.01). Additionally, relative to the control group, the tumor inhibition rates in the nude mice transplanted with SW480 cells of the pEGFP-MST1 and pEGFP-MST1 + 5-FU groups were 48.52±1.63 and 87.28±2.58%, respectively, and the positive rates of phospho-YAP1 (Ser127) protein in nuclei increased significantly (P<0.01). Overall, exogenous MST1 effectively inhibited the proliferation and growth of transplanted human colorectal cancer cells and promoted cancer cell apoptosis. The mechanism involved may be associated with the increase of intracellular phospho-YAP1 (Ser127) protein.
