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

backgroundhTERT has been reported involved in the proliferation and metastasis of gastric cancer, but the role of hTERT in gastric intestinal metaplasia, a premalignant lesion of the gastric mucosa was unknown. The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of hTERT in GIM and the effect of hTERT on CDX2 expression in gastric cells.

resultsExperiments showed that expression of hTERT was significantly higher in GIM than in normal gastric mucosa. Moreover, hTERT increased the KLF4 level via NF-κB during GIM. Furthermore, KLF4 is involved in the up-regulation of CDX2 induced by hTERT, and hTERT can interact with p50, thereby increasing the level of CDX2. MATERIALS AND

methodsImmunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of hTERT in gastric intestinal metaplasia tissue. Then, effect of hTERT on the expression of CDX2 was detected by qRT-PCR, WB and dual luciferase experiment. The role of p65 and p50 in the regulation of CDX2 were further detected by WB, CO-IP and ChIP.

conclusionsWe may conclude that hTERT promotes GIM by up-regulating CDX2 via NF-κB signaling pathway.
