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

backgroundProteasome activator γ (REG γ) expression was found to be upregulated and to play critical roles in several cancers. However, the effect of REG γ on osteosarcoma (OS) remains unclear. The objective of the present study was to explore the clinical significance of REG γ and its function in regulating the progression of OS.

methodsQuantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), western blotting (WB) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) analyses were performed to detect the expression levels of REG γ in OS tissues and cell lines. Then, the effects of REG γ expression on OS cell behavior

resultsWe found that REG γ expression was significantly upregulated in both OS tissues and cell lines. Our

conclusionsOur results revealed that REG γ plays an oncogenic role in OS by activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, indicating that REG γ may be a promising therapeutic target for OS patients.
