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

Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A2 (EIF5A2) has been demonstrated to be upregulated in numerous types of human cancer and is associated with cancer progression. However, the expression and role of EIF5A2 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains unclear. In the present study, the role of EIF5A2 in NSCLC was investigated, in addition to the underlying molecular mechanisms by which EIF5A2 acts. Relative EIF5A2 expression levels were determined in NSCLC cells and compared with levels in non-cancerous lung tissues. Short interfering (si)RNA targeted against EIF5A2 was used to knock down EIF5A2 levels in NSCLC cells. Cell proliferation, apoptosis rate, migration ability and invasion ability were determined in untreated and siRNA-treated NSCLC cells, in addition to the relative protein expression levels of various tumorigenic proteins and E-cadherin. EIF5A2 expression was significantly higher in NSCLC tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues. Knockdown of EIF5A2 in the NSCLC cells significantly inhibited cell proliferation and induced apoptosis. Furthermore, EIF5A2 silencing suppressed cell migratory and invasive capacities
