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

Endothelin-1 (ET-1), which exists not only in the vascular endothelium but is also widely present in various tissues and cells, is an important cardiovascular regulatory factor that serves an important role in maintaining the basal vascular tone and homeostasis in the cardiovascular system. In the present study, the ET-1 gene was silenced by RNA interference, and the effects on lung cancer cell proliferation and tumor cell invasion were then detected by Cell Counting kit-8 and Transwell assays. In addition, the expression of apoptosis, growth and invasion-associated proteins, including RhoA/C, vascular endothelial growth factor, pigment epithelium-derived factor, AKT, E-cadherin and cyclooxygenase-2 was evaluated by western blotting upon silencing ET-1. In the present study, Endostar, a recombinant human endostatin injectable drug, was also used, and it was assessed whether the sensitivity of tumor cells to this drug could be increased by silencing ET-1.
