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

objectiveThe inter-α-trypsin inhibitor heavy chain 4 (ITIH4) protein is involved in the development of tumors. However, the relationship between ITIH4 and ovarian cancer (OC) has not been extensively examined. This study aimed to explore the effect of ITIH4 on OC and to identify its underlying mechanism.

methodsExpressions of ITIH4 in OC tissues and cells were determined using quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and western blots. The function of ITIH4 in the OC cell line HO8910pm was tested via ITIH4 knockdown. The cell growth rate was measured using MTT and colony formation assays. Flow cytometry was performed to evaluate cell cycle progression. Cell migration and invasion abilities were observed using the transwell migration assay.

resultsITIH4 was downregulated in OC tissues and cells. ITIH4 knockdown promoted cell growth and cell cycle progression. Consistent with these results, inhibition of ITIH4 in OC cells significantly increased cell migration and invasion abilities. Cox regression analysis suggests that ITIH4 expression alone is not a good predictor of the prognosis of malignant ovarian tumors in patients.

conclusionsITIH4 inhibits the progression of OC, suggesting that ITIH4 may be a useful biomarker for OC. This study may provide a potential novel target for the treatment of OC.
