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

Coiled-coil-helix-coiled-coil-helix domain-containing protein 2 (CHCHD2), a novel cell migration determinant, is able to co-express with other genes of the oxidative phosphorylation pathway by using a computational expression screening technique. However, little is known about the expression and biological function of CHCHD2 in human renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Western blotting was performed to detect CHCHD2 expression levels in normal renal cells and carcinoma cells. Immunohistochemistry was performed to detect an association between CHCHD2 expression and clinicopathological parameters in 75 RCC tissues using a tissue microarray. The function of CHCHD2 in the migration and angiogenesis of RCC cells was investigated using Transwell migration and tube formation assays. CHCHD2 expression was markedly increased in human RCC cells. The results of immunohistochemical analysis revealed that CHCHD2 expression was markedly associated with tumor grade (P<0.001). Notably, CHCHD2 knockdown inhibited RCC migration and tube formation of human umbilical vascular endothelial cells. CHCHD2 knockdown further suppressed matrix metalloproteinase-2 protein levels and enzyme activity. An ELISA identified that CHCHD2 knockdown decreased the secretion of vascular endothelial growth factor. The gathered data disclose information on the association of CHCHD2 with migration and angiogenesis of human RCC, and may strengthen the feasibility of targeting CHCHD2 as a potential therapeutic target.
