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

purposeInformation on the possible role of the ribosomal protein S15a (RPS15a) in gastric cancer is scarce. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of RPS15a gene expression on the growth and cell cycle of gastric cancer cells MATERIALS AND

methodsRPS15a mRNA expression was examined in cancer tissues and their corresponding adjacent normal tissues of 40 gastric adenocarcinoma patients. Next, RPS15a was knocked down using a lentivirus-mediated RNA interference (short hairpin RNA) system in the gastric cancer cell line BGC823. The effect of RPS15a knockdown was examined using CCK-8 assay, cell scratch test, colony formation assay, and flow cytometry. Finally, in nude mice, a tumorigenicity test was performed, and the tumor volume and weight were measured.

resultsRPS15a expression in tumor tissue was significantly greater than that in the adjacent normal tissue of gastric cancer patients. After RPS15a silencing, the BGC823 cell proliferation rate decreased significantly; most cells were arrested in the G0/G1 phase, cell growth was inhibited, and the migration rate was decreased. Colony formation assay showed that the number and size of clones in the RPS15a-silenced cells were fewer and smaller, compared to control cells. The nude mouse tumorigenicity test showed that RPS15a silencing had an inhibitory effect on tumor volume and mice weight.

conclusionThe present study found RPS15a expression to be higher in gastric tumors and its silencing in gastric cancer cells to inhibit the proliferation, growth, and migration thereof. Accordingly, RPS15a may be considered as a potential therapeutic target in gastric cancer.
