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

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of proteolytic enzymes, which involved in the degradation of extracellular matrix (ECM) and basement membrane (BM), and associated with tumor invasion and metastasis. Membrane type-2 MMP (MT2-MMP) is a member of MT-MMPs subgroup, and is supposed to be an important step for cancer invasion and metastasis. However, the roles of MT2-MMP in human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) remain unknown. In present study, we identified the roles of MT2-MMP in renal cancer progression by MT2-MMP suppression and overexpression in ACHN cells, which expressed highest level of MT2-MMP and lowest level of MT1-MMP in three kinds of renal cancer cells (786-0, ACHN, OS-RC-2). We found that the expression of MMP-2 could be regulated by MT2-MMP suppression or overexpression in ACHN cells, and both adhesion and invasive activities of ACHN cells were suppressed with MT2-MMP siRNA transfection. In addition, we found that MT2-MMP could increase ACHN cell proliferation, and inhibit cell apoptosis.
