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

The mechanisms of malignant cell metastasis to secondary sites are complex and multifactorial. Studies have demonstrated that small integrin‑binding ligand N‑linked glycoproteins (SIBLINGs), particularly bone sialoprotein (BSP) and osteopontin (OPN), are involved in neoplastic growth and metastasis. SIBLINGs promote malignant cell invasion and metastasis by enhancing matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP‑2) and MMP‑9 expression. Moreover, BSP and OPN can combine with integrin, which is located on the tumor cell surface, to further promote the malignant behavior of tumor cells. In the present study, we investigated whether SB225002, a specific CXCR2 receptor antagonist, can inhibit prostate cancer cell expression of BSP and OPN and reduce cancer cell invasion ability. A series of experiments showed that after SB225002 treatment, the proliferation, invasion and migration of two androgen‑independent prostate cancer cell lines were inhibited, but this inhibitory effect was not observed on androgen‑dependent prostate cancer cells. Western blotting showed that the PI3K signaling pathway could regulate the expression of SIBLING and MMP family proteins, and SB22055 could reduce the expression of BSP, OPN and MMP‑2 in prostate cancer cells by inhibiting AKT/mTOR phosphorylation. Finally, in vivo experiments confirmed that SB225002 inhibited the proliferation of prostate cancer cells in vivo, and the expression levels of BSP, OPN and MMP‑2 were also inhibited.
