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

purposeSET has been proven to be an oncogene, which promotes the initiation and progression in several kinds of malignant carcinomas. However, the expression and its functional roles in colorectal carcinoma (CRC) remained unknown. MATERIALS AND

methodsCRC tissues samples, CRC cell lines and xenograft mouse tumors were used in this study. The mRNA and protein expressions were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), immunohistochemistry (IHC), and Western blot (WB), respectively. siRNAs were used to silence the gene expression. Cell viability, cell proliferation, colony formation, and apoptosis were measured by MTS assay, EdU incorporation assay, plated colony formation assay, and flow cytometry, respectively. Western blot was applied to evaluate the levels of Akt, p-Akt, c-Myc and cyclin D1. Xenograft mouse model was performed to observe the role of SET in vivo.

resultsOur results revealed that SET was up-regulated in CRC, and the expression of SET was increased with the development of CRC. SET knockdown in vitro attenuated cell proliferation activity, and increased cell apoptosis in CRC cells. Moreover, the knockdown of SET reduces tumorigenic potential in nude mice. For the mechanism, knockdown of SET promoted the dephosphorylation of Akt, followed by suppressing the translocation of NF-κB to nucleus. In addition, SET knockdown-mediated dephosphorylation of Akt downregulated the expression of c-Myc and Cyclin D1, which inhibited the cell survival in CRC.

conclusionOur results indicated that SET promoted cell survival via activating Akt/NF-κB signaling pathway in CRC, which strongly suggested that SET might be a potential therapeutic target in the colorectal carcinoma treatment.
