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

Beclin 1 is involved in autophagy, differentiation, apoptosis and cancer progression, and functions as a haploinsufficient tumor suppressor gene. The aim of the present study was to elucidate the function of Beclin 1 in colon cancer. A Beclin 1-expressing plasmid was transfected into HCT-15 and HCT-116 cells, and the phenotypes and associated molecules were determined. Beclin 1 transfectants were subcutaneously injected into nude mice to determine tumor growth, and proliferation and apoptosis levels using Ki-67 immunostaining and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL), respectively. Beclin 1 overexpression inhibited viability as determined using a Cell Counting Kit-8 assay, inhibited migration and invasion as determined using a wound healing assay or Transwell assay, and lamellipodia formation by filamentous actin staining, induced autophagy as determined using electron microscopy, and light chain 3B (LC-3B) expression, and apoptosis as determined using Annexin V staining in the two cell lines (P<0.05).
