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

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common type of malignant tumor worldwide with a high mortality rate. In the past 20 years, the morbidity rate of HCC has increased. Progress has been made in the clinical diagnosis and therapy for HCC. However, due to the high heterogeneity and metastasis targeted therapy for HCC exhibits great promise, and novel therapeutic targets for HCC are urgently required. Kinesin family member C1 (KIFC1) is a member of the kinesin superfamily of proteins. Previous studies have indicated a potential association between KIFC1 and cancer progression. However, the potential role of KIFC1 in the development of HCC remains unclear. The present study aimed to explore the function of KIFC1 in HCC. Immunohistochemical (IHC) assays were performed to explore the KIF15 expression levels in 74 samples of HCC and corresponding non-tumor tissues. The potential association between KIF15 expression levels and clinical features was analyzed, and the effects of KIF15 on cell proliferation of HCC were detected by colony formation and MTT assays. In addition, the proliferation-related proteins Ki67 and PCNA were detected by western blotting. The possible effects of KIF15 on tumor growth were measured in mice. The results demonstrated that a high expression level of KIFC1 was associated with poor prognosis of HCC. Further results indicated that KIFC1 promoted cell proliferation of HCC
