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

backgroundSex-determining region Y-box protein 5 (SOX5) has been demonstrated to be implicated in oncogenic function in various types of cancers. However, the role of SOX5 in gastric cancer (GC) remains poorly elucidated. Herein, we investigated the role and the underlying mechanism of SOX5 in GC progression.

methodsSOX5 mRNA and protein expression were detected by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), Western blot and immunohistochemistry in human GC specimens, and their clinical significance was evaluated. The effects of SOX5 knockdown or overexpression on GC cell behavior were determined by proliferation, wound-healing and transwell assays in vitro, and metastasis assays in vivo; and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related markers were detected by qRT-PCR, Western blot and immunofluorescence staining.

resultsThe up-regulated expression of SOX5 in GC specimens was significantly correlated with clinical metastasis and poor prognosis for patients with GC. Besides, SOX5 promoted GC cell migration and invasion in vitro, as well as GC cell metastasis in vivo. Mechanically, Twist-mediated EMT was likely involved in SOX5-facilitated GC cell behavior.

conclusionSOX5 has an important function in GC progression. In addition, SOX5 promotes GC cell invasion and metastasis via activation of Twist-mediated EMT, thus providing a potential therapeutic target for GC metastasis.
