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

backgroundHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related death in the world.

methodsPLC/PRF/5 and Huh7 cells were exposed to Ps H. Cell viability, migration, and invasion were measured with CCK-8 assay, EMT and Transwell assay, respectively. Western blot was employed to detect the expression of cleaved caspase 3, E-cadherin, vimentin, β-catenin, p-GSK-3β and GSK-3β. Apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometry, and caspase 3 activity assay. For in vivo experiments, xenograft tumors were induced with PLC/PRF/5 cells.

resultsPs H reduced cell viability and induced apoptosis in HCC cells in the dose-dependent manner; EMT and invasion were inhibited by Ps H. Ps H downregulated expression of β-catenin and p-GSK-3β; in addition, β-catenin silencing mediated Ps H-induced suppression of cell progression in PLC/PRF/5 cells. An administration of Ps H effectively suppressed the tumor growth in the HCC xenograft model

conclusionPs H suppresses HCC cell progression through downregulation of β-catenin
