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

Cervical cancer is a common gynecological malignancy. Hiwi exhibits a high level of expression in cervical cancer cells. However, the effects of Hiwi expression in cervical cancer cells remain unresolved. In the present study, the effects of Hiwi downregulation on the growth and epithelial-mesenchymal transition of cervical cancer cells were investigated. The results of the present study revealed that the suppression of Hiwi was able to inhibit the proliferation of cervical cancer cells and arrest cell cycle at G1 phase. The downregulation of Hiwi was also revealed to inhibit the epithelial-mesenchymal transition process of cervical cancer cells by regulating the expression of E-cadherin, N-cadherin, vimentin, and snail. The present study demonstrated that the suppression of Hiwi was able to inhibit the growth and epithelial-mesenchymal transition of cervical cancer cells. Therefore, the results suggest that Hiwi may function as an oncogene in cervical cancer cells and may become a potential target for cervical cancer therapy.
