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

backgroundMembrane-associated guanylate kinase (MAGUK) with inverted orientation protein 1 (MAGI1) is a novel member of the MAGUK family with a vital role in tumor progression related to invasion and metastasis. However, the function of MAGI1 in glioma is currently unknown. We therefore analyzed the expression of MAGI1 protein in human glioma samples, glioma cell lines and glioma stem cells (GSCs), and explored its effects on glioma cell proliferation and apoptosis.

methodsMAGI1 expression in glioma tissues was examined by Western blotting and real-time polymerase chain reaction and its relationships with clinical pathological features were analyzed. The effects of MAGI1 knockdown on the proliferation of glioma cell lines and GSCs were detected by CCK8 and colony-formation assays, and apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometry. We also investigated the effects of MAGI1 silencing on protein expression levels of epithelial-mesenchymal transition biomarkers, as well as β-catenin, cyclin D1, PTEN and phospho-Akt by Western blotting.

resultsMAGI1 was significantly downregulated in glioma tissues and its expression was related to cancer progression. Silencing of MAGI1 in both glioma cell lines and GSCs enhanced proliferation and inhibited apoptosis. MAGI1 knockdown also significantly increased the expression levels of N-cadherin, vimentin, β-catenin, cyclin D1 and phospho-Akt and reduced the expression of E-cadherin and PTEN.

conclusionsOur results indicated that MAGI1 might play a vital role in glioma progression and may represent a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of glioma.
