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

Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is believed to play key roles in the process of cancer metastasis. The molecular changes during EMT are characterized by the down-regulation of epithelial proteins, such as E-cadherin, and the up-regulation of mesenchymal proteins, such as vimentin (VIM). It has been demonstrated that L-kynurenine (L-Kyn), a physiological ligand of Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (Ahr), promotes cancer cells to metastasize. However, the effects of D-enantiomer of kynurenine, D-kynurenine (D-Kyn), on metastasis are still unclear. In the present paper, we firstly confirmed that D-Kyn (10, 40, 60, and 100 µM) positively regulated the metastasis of 95D cells, a lung cancer cell line, which was reduced upon siRNA
