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

backgroundNucleoporin NUP153 (NUP153) is well known to be involved in the regulating of nuclear transport. Although NUP153 is associated with several cancers, its role in colorectal cancer (CRC) and the underlying mechanism are still unknown.

objectiveThe aim of this study was to access the effect of NUP153 on the prognosis of patients with CRC, and cancer cell proliferation.

methodsThe expression levels of NUP153 in CRC tissues and matched normal colon tissues were examined by real-time quantitative PCR and immunohistochemistry. Then the association between NUP153 levels with clinical variables as well as survival time was investigated. Moreover, overexpression of NUP153 in HCT116 cells was established to study its influence on cell proliferation in vitro, and a xenograft model was performed to explore this effect in vivo.

resultsWe found that NUP153 was highly expressed in adjacent normal tissues than in cancer tissues, and elevated NUP153 expression was negatively associated with pathological grade (P= 0.015), T stage (P= 0.048) and distant metastasis (P= 0.006). Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that patients with higher NUP153 expression had a longer overall survival (OS) (P= 0.01) and recurrence free disease (RFS) (P= 0.001). Logistic regression analysis further identified NUP153 as an independent prognostic safe factor for OS and recurrence. Moreover, NUP153 overexpression suppressed CRC cells proliferation and inhibited tumor growth in a xenograft model. Its mechanistic investigations showed that NUP153 overexpression inhibited β-catenin transcriptional activity and down-regulated the mRNA expression levels of Wnt downstream proteins-Axin2, cyclinD1, c-myc and lef-1.

conclusionsNUP153 might be a promising prognostic factor, a potential tumor suppressor and therapeutic target in human CRC through an interaction with the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.
