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

objectiveTo construct a recombinant adenovirus with artificial microRNA targeting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) to inhibit the proliferation and induce the apoptosis of tumor cells.

methodsAn artificial microRNA (amiR) targeting EGFR was designed and cloned into an adenovirus shuttle plasmid to obtain pDC312-SLPI (secretory leukoprotease inhibitor)-EGFR amiR-pA. Then it was co-transfected into 293 cells with the adenovirus backbone plasmid pBHGloxΔE1, 3Cre to pack the recombinant adenovirus Ad-SLPI-EGFR amiR. After the recombinant adenovirus infected Hep-2 cells by Ad-SLPI-EGFR amiR, a morphological change was observed, and an MTT assay was performed to assess the proliferation of the tumor cells. The expression of EGFR was determined by western blotting analyses to assess the effect of Ad-SLPI-EGFR amiR.

resultsThe sequence of artificial microRNA targeting EGFR was confirmed by DNA sequencing. Ad-SLPI-EGFR amiR significantly downregulated EGFR expression at the protein level and exerted an inhibitory effect on proliferation in Hep-2 cells. The transfected cells became round, shrunken, partly grape-like and floating under a lighted microscope.

conclusionThe recombinant adenovirus of Ad-SLPI-EGFR amiR was successfully constructed, and it was able to sufficiently decrease the expression of EGFR and inhibit the proliferation of Hep-2 cells.
