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

PSMD7, a 19S proteasome subunit, is overexpressed in most carcinoma cells. It forms a dimer with PSMD14 that functions in the removal of attached ubiquitin chain. However, there is little knowledge about the cellular mechanism of PSMD7 and its exact biological function, especially in cancer cells. In this study, we explored the role of PSMD7 in proliferation, cell cycle, apoptosis, and proteasomal proteolysis in the esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cell line EC9706. Our results showed that PSMD7 was highly expressed in ESCC cells. Downregulation of PSMD7 by lentivirus-mediated shRNA led to decreased proliferation, increased cell apoptosis, and reduced proteasomal function. Notably, lower expression level of mTOR and p70S6K and suppressed activity of mTOR/p70S6K pathway were detected after PSMD7 downregulation. By contrast, increased expression of p-mTOR
