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

Early studies have indicated that insulin-like growth factor II mRNA binding protein 3 (IGF2BP3/IMP3) may affect the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC); however, the detailed underlying mechanisms, particularly its linkage to tight junction protein-mediated cell invasion, remain unclear. The present study revealed that IGF2BP3 increased HCC cell invasiveness by suppressing zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) expression, via direct binding to the 3' untranslated region (3'-UTR). Analysis of the molecular mechanisms demonstrated that IGF2BP3 binds to the overlapping targets of IGF2BP3-RNA cross-linkage and microRNA (miR)191-5p targeting sites, and promotes the formation of an miR191-5p-induced RNA-induced silencing complex. The knockdown of IGF2BP3 or the addition of a miR-191-5p inhibitor decreased cellular invasiveness and increased ZO-1 expression. Analysis of the human HCC database also confirmed the association between IGF2BP3 and HCC progression. Collectively, these preclinical findings suggest that IGF2BP3 increases HCC cell invasiveness by promoting the miR191-5p-induced suppression of ZO-1 signaling. This newly identified signaling effect on small molecule targeting may aid in the development of novel strategies with which to inhibit HCC progression more effectively.
