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 was undertaken to explore the functional involvement of Hh signaling and its regulatory mechanism in endometrial hyperplasia. Differential expression of Hh signaling molecules i.e., Ihh, Shh, Gli1 or Gsk3β was observed in endometrial hyperplasial (EH) cells as compared to normal endometrial cells. Estradiol induced the expression of Hh signaling molecules and attenuated the expression of Gsk3β whereas anti-estrogen (K1) or progestin (MPA) suppressed these effects in EH cells. Cyclopamine treatment or Gli1 siRNA knockdown suppressed the growth of EH cells and reduced the expression of proliferative markers. Estradiol also induced the nuclear translocation of Gli1 which was suppressed by both MPA and K1 in EH cells. While exploring non-canonical mechanism, LY-294002 (Gsk3β activator) caused a decrease in Gli1 expression indicating the involvement of Gsk3β in Gli1 regulation. Further, Gsk3β silencing promoted the expression and nuclear translocation of Gli1 demonstrating that Gsk3β serves as a negative kinase regulator of Gli1 in EH cells. Similar attenuation of Hh signaling molecules was observed in rats with uterine hyperplasia undergoing anti-estrogen treatment. The study suggested that Hh/Gli1 cascade (canonical pathway) as well as Gsk3β-Gli1 crosstalk (non-canonical pathway) play crucial role in estrogen-dependent cell proliferation in endometrial hyperplasia.
