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

Esophageal cancer is a type of gastrointestinal carcinoma and is among the 10 most common causes of cancer death worldwide. However, the specific mechanism and the biomarkers in the proliferation and metastasis of esophageal tumors are still unclear. Therefore, the development of several natural products which could inhibit esophageal tumors deserve attention. In the present study, different sources of cancer cells were used to select the sensitive cell line (esophageal cancer cell KYSE450) and the proper dose of angustoline, which were utilized in the following cell viability, migration and invasion assays. Then the lipidomic detection of clinical samples (tissue and blood plasma) from esophageal cancer patients was performed, to screen out the specific phospholipid metabolites [PC (16:0/18:1) and LPC (16:0)]. Considering lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase 2 (LPCAT2) was tightly relative with phospholipids conversion, serine/threonine-protein kinase 11 (LKB1), 5'-monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and embryonic lethal, and abnormal vision, drosophila-like 1 (ELAVL1) were investigated, to evaluate their expression levels in esophageal tumor tissue and KYSE450 cells. Additionally, KYSE450 tumor bearing mouse model was constructed, the role of angustoline in inhibiting esophageal tumors through regulating LKB1/AMPK/ELAVL1/LPCAT2 pathway was validated, and found that the conversion from LPC (16:0) to PC (16:0/18:1) was blocked by angustoline in some degree. The above results for the first time proved that angustoline suppressed esophageal tumors through activating LKB1/AMPK and inhibiting ELAVL1/LPCAT2, which consequently blocked phospholipid remodeling from LPC (16:0) to PC (16:0/18:1).
