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

Among primary brain tumors, gliomas are the most common and most aggressive, with a poor prognosis and limited treatment options. Thus, it is essential to determine the mechanisms involved in glioma development to develop effective therapies for glioma patients. Pre-B-cell leukemia homeobox 3 (PBX3), a critical member of the PBX family, is frequently overexpressed in multiple human malignancies. However, the expression patterns and biological functions, as well as the involved molecular functions of PBX3 in human gliomas remain largely unknown. In this study, we demonstrate that PBX3 expression is increased in both human glioma tissues and cell lines compared with their normal counterparts. These results suggested that PBX3 might be involved in glioma progression. Thus, the role of PBX3 in glioma cell proliferation was investigated using genetic knockdown and overexpression methods. The results showed that PBX3 knockdown inhibited glioma cell proliferation and induced apoptosis, while PBX3 overexpression significantly promoted glioma cell proliferation. Mechanistically, we found that PBX3 promoted cell proliferation by modulating cell cycle progression. A xenograft LN229 model was used to confirm that PBX3 depletion decreased tumor growth in vivo. In summary, our findings reveal that PBX3 may be a potential therapeutic target in gliomas.
