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

Previous research has linked high mobility group box 3 (HMGB3) overexpression to the malignant progression and poor prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The present study investigated the role of HMGB3 in cell survival and colony formation of NSCLC cells. Stable knockdown of HMGB3 in A549 cells was achieved by lentiviral-based shRNA interference and verified by detection of the transcriptional and translational level of HMGB3 with reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blotting, respectively. The influence of HMGB3 knockdown on A549 cell viability and apoptotic rate was evaluated by Cell Counting Kit-8 assay and flow cytometry following annexin V staining, respectively. The proliferative capacity of A549 cells with or without HMGB3 knockdown was compared by measuring their colony forming efficiency. The results of the current study revealed that HMGB3 knockdown significantly reduced cell viability and colony forming efficiency while promoting apoptosis in A549 cells, indicating that HMGB3 may be pivotal for the survival and colony formation of A549 cells, serving a notable role in NSCLC progression.
