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

Esophageal squamous cells carcinoma (ESCC) is a major common thoracic tumor characterized by distinctly high incidences and mortality rates. Despite advances in multimodality therapy, the mortality rate of ESCC remains high and understanding of molecular alterations leading to the development and progression of ESCC is still very limited. In this study, a new tumor suppressor candidate, cell adhesion molecule with homology to L1CAM (CHL1), located at 3p26 which was frequently deleted in ESCC was identified. Reduced expression of CHL1 correlated with poor differentiation, increased invasion, and lymph-node metastasis, advanced tumor stage, and decreased overall survival. Methylation-specific PCR and FISH assays revealed that down-regulation of CHL1 in both ESCC cell lines and clinical samples were associated with promoter hypermethylation and loss of heterozygosity. Functional studies using lentiviral-based overexpression and knockdown systems provided direct support of CHL1 to function as an important tumor suppressor with both anti-proliferation and anti-metastasis abilities, through Merlin and SEMA3B-Np1-mediated inhibition of AKT signaling pathway. Further characterization of CHL1 may provide a novel therapeutic target in ESCC treatment.
