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

Sex-determining region Y-related high-mobility-group box transcription factor 11 (SOX11) is an essential member of the SOX transcription factors and has been highlighted as an important regulator in embryogenesis. SOX11 studies have only recently shifted focus from its role in embryogenesis and development to its function in disease. In particular, the role of SOX11 in carcinogenesis has become of major interest in the field. SOX11 expression is elevated in a wide variety of tumors. In many cancers, dysfunctional expression of SOX11 has been correlated with increased cancer cell survival, inhibited cell differentiation, and tumor progression through the induction of metastasis and angiogenesis. Nevertheless, in a limited number of malignancies, SOX11 has also been identified to function as a tumor suppressor. Herein, we review the correlation between the expression of SOX11 and tumor behaviors. We also summarize the mechanisms underlying the regulation of SOX11 expression and activity in pathological conditions. In particular, we focus on the pathological processes of cancer targeted by SOX11 and discuss whether SOX11 is protective or detrimental during tumor progression. Moreover, SOX11 is highlighted as a clinical biomarker for the diagnosis and prognosis of various human cancer. The information reviewed here should assist in future experimental designs and emphasize the potential of SOX11 as a therapeutic target for cancer.
