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

backgroundColorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common aggressive malignancies. KLHL22 functions as a tumor suppressor, and previous findings have demonstrated that KLHL22 can regulate the development of breast cancer and CRC. However, few studies have investigated the role of KLHL22 in CRC cell epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and proliferation. The current study aimed to detect the role of KLHL22 in CRC cell proliferation and EMT and to elucidate the probable molecular mechanisms through which KLHL22 is involved with these processes. MATERIALS AND

methodsTranswell invasion, MTT, immunohistochemistry and Western blotting assays were performed to evaluate the migration, invasion and proliferation abilities of CRC cells, and the levels of active molecules involved in the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway were examined through Western blotting analysis. In addition, the in vivo function of KLHL22 was assessed using a tumor xenograft model.

resultsKLHL22 expression was weaker in CRC tissues than in nonmalignant tissues and could inhibit cell invasion, migration, and proliferation in vitro. Furthermore, the regulatory effects of KLHL22 on EMT were partially attributed to the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. The in vivo results also showed that KLHL22 modulated CRC tumorigenesis.

conclusionKLHL22 can regulate the activity of GSK-3β to influence the level of PI3K, and this regulation promotes EMT inhibition partially through the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.
