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

Alterations in the extracellular matrix (ECM) likely facilitate the first steps of cancer cell metastasis and supports tumor progression. Recent data has demonstrated that alterations in collagen XVII (BP180), a transmembrane protein and structural component of the ECM, can have profound effects on cancer invasiveness. Collagen XVII is a homotrimer of three α1 (XVII) chains. Its intracellular domain contains binding sites for plectin, integrin β4, and BP230, while the extracellular domain facilitates interactions between the cell and the ECM. Collagen XVII and its shed ectodomain have been implicated in cell motility and adhesion and are believed to promote tumor development and invasion. A strong association of collagen XVII ectodomain shedding and tumor invasiveness occurs in squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Aberrant expression of collagen XVII has been reported in many epithelial cancers, ranging from squamous cell carcinoma to colon, pancreatic, mammary, and ovarian carcinoma. Thus, in this review, we focus on collagen XVII's role in neoplasia and tumorigenesis. Lastly, we discuss the importance of targeting collagen XVII and its ectodomain shedding as a novel strategy to curb tumor growth and reduce metastatic potential.
