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

SMAD family member 1 (Smad1) have been involved in metastatic progression of many cancer types. However, the detailed molecular signalling pathway underlying the regulatory link between Smad1 and metastasis remains elusive. Here, we demonstrate that Smad1 promotes migration of colorectal cancer (CRC) cells by inducing Snail and Ajuba expression simultaneously, but no apparent effect on Twist1 expression. Remarkably, E-cadherin, the best known Snail/Ajuba target gene is downregulated by Smad1 expression. Further, depletion of Ajuba in HCT116 cells significantly dampens the cell migration capability induced by Smad1 overexpression, suggesting that Ajuba is required for Smad1 to induce cell migration. Moreover, clinical analysis shows a significant positive correlation between the level of Smad1 and Ajuba in CRC samples. Together, our data provides the first evidence of the regulatory network of Smad1/Snail/Ajuba axis in CRC migration, suggesting that Smad1 and Ajuba are potential new therapeutic targets and prognostic factors for CRC.
