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

backgroundCAPS1 (calcium-dependent activator protein for secretion) is a multi-domain protein involved in regulating exocytosis of synaptic vesicles and dense-core vesicles. However, the expression and function of CAPS1 in cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) remains unclear. In the present study, we explored the role of CAPS1 in CCA carcinogenesis.

methodsCAPS1 expression was explored using western blotting and immunohistochemistry in four CCA cell lines and clinical samples from 90 cases of CCA. The clinical significance of CAPS1 was analyzed. The biological function of CAPS1 in CCA cells was detected in vitro and in vivo. The underlying mechanism of CAPS1 function was explored by detecting the expression of critical molecules in its associated signaling pathways. The mechanism of CAPS1 downregulation in tumor tissues was explored using in silico prediction and luciferase reporter assays.

resultsCAPS1 expression was reduced in CCA cell lines and human tumor tissues. Loss of CAPS1 in tumor tissues was closely associated with poor prognosis of patients with CCA. Moreover, CAPS1 expression correlated significantly with tumor-node-metastasis stage, lymph node metastasis, and vascular invasion. Lentivirus-mediated CAPS1 overexpression substantially prevented clone formation, cell proliferation, and cell cycle progression. CAPS1 overexpression also suppressed carcinogenesis in nude mice. Mechanistically, CAPS1 overexpression greatly accelerated the ERK and p38 MAPK signal pathways. In addition, microRNA miR-30e-5p negatively regulated CAPS1 expression.

conclusionThese data showed that CAPS1 functions as a tumor suppressor in CCA. Reduced CAPS1 expression could indicate poor prognosis of patients with CCA.
