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

Recently SPAG9 has been reported to show aberrant expressions in numerous human malignancies and act as a crucial role in tumor's proliferation and invasion. Human enhancer of filamentation 1 (HEF1, also known as CasL and NEDD9) is a non-catalytic scaffolding protein belonging to CAS (Crk-associated substrate) protein family that interacts with multiple signaling cascades. Due to the diversified function of HEF1, abnormal expression of HEF1 frequently combines with malignant phenotypes and poor prognosis. However, little is known between the relationship of SPAG9 and HEF1 in bladder tumorigenesis. In this study, expression of SPAG9 in vivo and in vitro has been detected by quantitative real-time PCR and Western blot analysis after transfected with SPAG9 overexpression/inhibitor vector. We also found that HEF1 expression shows consistency and is regulated by SPAG9. Overexpression of SPAG9 promotes bladder cancer cells migration through HEF1 upregulation and emerges protein level of activated Rac1. Silencing SPAG9 inhibits cell migration through HEF1 downregulation and reduces protein level of activated Rac1. Also, we found that expression of EMT marker such as E-cadherin, Vimentin is regulated by SPAG9. Considering EMT plays a crucial role in tumor cells spreading and invasion, SPAG9 and HEF1 may potentially set a new therapeutic approach to bladder cancer treatment.
