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

Increased expression levels of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) are associated with metastasis in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), although the mechanisms involved remain unknown. The present study aimed to investigate these mechanisms. The results demonstrated that the expression levels of TGF-β1 mRNA were higher and those of lncRNA-NEF were lower in tumor tissues compared with in healthy tissues. High levels of TGF-β1 mRNA and low levels of lncRNA-NEF were also detected in the serum of patients with PTC compared with in healthy controls. Serum levels of TGF-β1 and lncRNA-NEF were significantly associated with lymph node metastasis. Furthermore, TGF-β1 promoted cell migration and invasion of PTC cell lines, but not the normal cell line, whereas lncRNA-NEF overexpression inhibited these phenomena. TGF-β1 also inhibited lncRNA-NEF expression in PTC cell lines, but not in the normal cell line. Conversely, lncRNA-NEF overexpression exhibited no effects on TGF-β1. In conclusion, the present study suggested that TGF-β1 may promote the invasion and migration of PTC cells by inhibiting the expression of lncRNA-NEF.
