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

Although an increasing number of findings have proven that glutathione peroxidase 3 (GPX3) is methylated and down-regulated in various cancers, the underlying mechanism of its occurrence in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) remains unknown. In the present study, we found that the methylation rate in advanced cancers was significantly higher than that in early stage cancers by a methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction. Furthermore, the proliferation and migration capacities of KYSE-510 cells were inhibited after up-regulating GPX3 expression by GPX3 lentivirus transfection. As expected, the proliferation and migration capacities of KYSE-150 cells were promoted after down-regulating GPX3 expression with siRNA interfering. Moreover, we found that GPX3 might have deactivated the FAK/AKT signaling pathway to lower the expression of MMP-9 to suppress the migration and invasive capacities of KYSE-150 and KYSE-510 cells. Our findings suggested that GPX3 played a pivotal role in the suppression of carcinogenesis and progression in ESCC, and GPX3 has the potential as a novel biomarker in the diagnosis of ESCC.
