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

DJ‑1, an oncogene, has been reported to be an independent prognostic indicator of poor survival in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of DJ‑1 in tumor cell proliferation and invasion in ESCC and its underlying mechanisms. It was observed that the expression level of DJ‑1 was upregulated and positively associated with EMT biomarkers in 84 human ESCC tissue specimens. Overexpression and knockdown experiments demonstrated that DJ‑1 was involved in proliferation, migration, invasion and EMT in ECA‑109 cells in vitro and extensive peritoneal seeding in a peritoneal dissemination mice model. Furthermore, the present data revealed that DJ‑1 could activate the Wnt/β‑catenin signaling pathway, which mediates the EMT and metastasis in ESCC. In conclusions, DJ‑1 promoted proliferation, invasion, metastasis and the EMT in ESCC via activation of the Wnt/β‑catenin signal pathway. The present results suggested DJ‑1 could represent a promising therapeutic target for the prevention and treatment of ESCC‑related metastasis.
