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

Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) activated by TGF-β (ATB) has been reported to be widely expressed in different types of cancer; however, the function of ATB in lung cancer remains unclear. In order to elucidate the role of ATB in lung cancer, reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the expression of ATB in tumor tissues and corresponding non-tumor lung tissues from 32 patients with lung cancer. Furthermore, the association between the expression of ATB and clinical characteristics was investigated. Cell proliferation was assessed using a cell counting kit-8 assay and cell migration was assessed using a wound healing assays. Epithelial-mesenchymal-transition and mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway activity was examined using western blotting. It was demonstrated that ATB was highly expressed in lung cancer tissues compared with noncancerous tissues, and associated with tumor size and metastasis. It was also demonstrated that ATB was highly expressed in the lung cancer cell lines, A549 and HCC827, compared with the HBE-1 cell line. Suppression of ATB significantly inhibited the proliferation and migratory rate of lung cancer cells. The protein expression levels of p38, E-cadherin and N-cadherin were altered by suppression of ATB expression. Overall, the present study demonstrated that ATB may promote the development of lung cancer.
