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

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the major causes of cancer-associated mortality worldwide. Wnt family member 10A (Wnt10a) is an oncogene associated with the carcinogenesis and progression of renal cell carcinoma, and is strongly expressed in the CRC cell line SW480. However, the role of Wnt10a in CRC has been rarely reported. In the present study, the expression levels of Wnt10a were higher in 40 tumor tissues compared with in paired control tissues, as determined by RT-qPCR method. In addition, the clinic opathological association analysis indicated that Wnt10a expression was associated with tumor stage (T3+T4, P=0.015). Furthermore, Wnt10a was highly expressed in the SW480, SW620 and HCT116 cell lines. In order to explore the role of Wnt10a in CRC, Wnt10a expression was knocked down by siRNA technology in HCT116 cell line. Cell proliferation was significantly inhibited by 55% in CCK-8 assay following Wnt10a knockdown and cell migration rate was decreased by 50% in Transwell assay. In addition, western blot analysis demonstrated that Wnt10a knockdown decreased the expression levels of β-catenin, cyclin D1, lymphoid enhancer-binding factor 1 and protein kinase B, which was consistent with results obtained with the Wnt/β-catenin specific inhibitor LGK-974. It was thus suggested that Wnt10a downregulation inactivated the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in HCT116 cells. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that Wnt10a may have an oncogenic role during carcinogenesis of CRC through activation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling.
