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

backgroundThe present study aimed to evaluate the correlation of integrin alpha 7 (ITGA7) with patients' clinicopathological characteristics and survival profiles, as well as its influence on cell proliferation, apoptosis, and stemness in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

methodsA total of 397 NSCLC patients underwent surgical resection were included, and ITGA7 was measured in tumor tissues and adjacent tissues by immunohistochemistry. patients' clinical data were extracted from database, and follow-up records were reviewed. In cellular experiments, expression of ITGA7 was measured in NSCLC cell lines and normal human lung epithelial cell line by RT-qPCR. The influence of ITGA7 on cell activity was assessed by transfecting overexpression plasmids and knockdown plasmids of ITGA7 into A549 cells.

resultsIntegrin alpha 7 was upregulated in tumor tissues compared with the adjacent tissues of NSCLC patients. Patients with ITGA7 high expression presented poorer pathological differentiation, larger tumor size, and more advanced TNM stage compared with patients with ITGA7 low expression. For survival profiles, both disease-free survival and overall survival were shorter in ITGA7 high expression patients compared with ITGA7 low expression patients. In cellular experiments, ITGA7 was upregulated in NCI-H1650, A549, HCC-827, and NCI-H1299 cells compared with normal human lung epithelial cells BEAS-2B. In addition, ITGA7 promoted cell proliferation, inhibited cell apoptosis, and facilitated cell stemness in A549 cells.

conclusionIntegrin alpha 7 correlates with poor clinicopathological characteristics and survival profiles, and it promotes cell proliferation, stemness but suppresses cell apoptosis in NSCLC.
