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 Wnt signaling pathway regulates a number of biological processes. In the present study, the association between the Wnt signaling pathway and the pathogenesis of cervical cancer was investigated in the human cervical cancer CaSki cell line. An MTT assay was used to screen various concentrations of lithium chloride for use in subsequent experiments. Following incubation of CaSki cells with 0.05 and 0.1 mol/l lithium chloride, Twist and β-catenin were markedly upregulated at the mRNA and protein levels, respectively, compared with the untreated group, as measured by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and western blotting. The results of the present study indicate that Wnt activation (which was induced by lithium chloride) and the subsequent upregulation of Twist may represent one of the molecular mechanisms underlying the occurrence and development of cervical cancer.
