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

backgroundSecreted frizzled-related protein 1 (SFRP1) is a member of the SFRPs family that modulates the Wnt signal transduction pathway. Recent studies have showed down-regulation of SFRP1 expression in colorectal cancer (CRC). We aimed to evaluate the effect of SFRP1 on the proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis of CRC cells in vitro. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe used real-time fluorescence quantification (RT-PCR) and Western blotting to detect SFRP1 expression in CRC, pericarcinomatous tissues and CRC cell lines. We assessed the influence of overexpression and knockdown of SFRP1 on CRC cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis, Western blotting was used to evaluate protein levels of Wnt, β-catenin, and apoptosis-related proteins.

resultsThe expression of SFRP1 was significantly decreased in CRC tissues. Among the six CRC cell lines (sw-480, sw1116, caco-2, ht-29, colo-205, and hct-116), RT-PCR revealed that sw1116 cells had the lowest expression of SFRP1, while caco-2 cells had the highest SFRP1 expression. SFRP1 overexpression in sw1116 cells significantly suppressed cell proliferation while SFRP1 knockdown in caco-2 cells significantly increase the cell proliferation. In addition, overexpression of SFRP1 in sw1116 cells remarkedly suppressed cell migration and invasion, whereas knockdown of SFRP1 in caco-2 cells resulted in significant enhancement of migration and invasion. Furthermore, SFRP1 overexpression in sw1116 cells promoted cell apoptosis. Western blotting showed that SFRP1 overexpression significantly decreased the protein levels of Wnt, β-catenin and apoptosis-related proteins, including MMP2, MMP9, Twist, CDK1, TGF, and Bcl2.

conclusionOur results demonstrate that SFRP1 suppresses cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and promotes apoptosis in CRC cells.
