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

Mineral dust-induced gene (MDIG) is a proto- oncogene associated with lung cancer that serves a key role in the biological processes of tumorigenesis. The aim of the present study was to determine whether MDIG is involved in cisplatin (DDP) resistance in lung adenocarcinoma, and to investigate the associated molecular mechanism. In the present study, MDIG-knockdown and MDIG-overexpressing A549 cells and DDP-resistant A549/DDP cells were initially constructed, and then the mRNA and protein expression levels of MDIG and ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters (ABCB1, ABCC1, ABCG2), and the expression levels of the major associated proteins in the WNT/β-catenin pathway were determined by reverse transcription-quantitative PCR and Western blotting experiments. The results revealed that the mRNA and protein expression levels of MDIG in A549/DDP cells were significantly higher compared with those in A549 cells, and that the protein expression levels of MDIG increased in a dose-dependent manner with increasing DDP concentrations. Overexpression of MDIG in A549 and A549/DDP cells led to an increase in the IC
