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

Translationally controlled tumor protein (TCTP) is an evolutionally highly conserved protein which has been implicated as a biomarker for cancer cell reversion although the mechanism is not very clear. This makes it a potential target for cancer therapy. P53 tumor suppressor protein is important in regulating cell growth, it can induce either growth arrest or programmed cell death (apoptosis). TCTP and P53 has been reported that can regulate the protein level of each other. Here we proved that TCTP is a malignancy state keeper in lung cancer and lower level of TCTP protein made cells more sensitive to stressful condition. No obvious difference has been observed from wildtype and the TCTP knockdown lung cancer cells (A549) when located in the normal circumstances. While under the stressful condition, the existence of higher protein level of TCTP can protect cells from apoptosis. TCTP and P53 formed a feedback signal pathway and through it to regulate the downstream Akt signal pathways to make the lung cancer cells keep a higher metabolism level and protect cancer cells from apoptosis induced by outside stress.
