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

backgroundGrowing evidence has demonstrated that glutathione peroxidases (GPXs) family genes play critical roles in onset and progression of human cancer. However, a systematic study regarding expression, diagnostic and prognostic values, and function of GPXs family genes in breast cancer remains absent. MATERIALS AND

methodsSeveral databases were employed to perform in silico analyses for GPXs family genes. qRT-PCR, western blot and immunohistochemistry staining were introduced to validate GPX3 expression in breast cancer. The functions of GPX3 in breast cancer cells were successively determined.

resultsBy combination of receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, survival analysis and expression analysis, GPX3 was considered as a potential tumor suppressor and a promising diagnostic/prognostic biomarker in breast cancer. Next, low expression of GPX3 was confirmed in breast cancer cells and tissues when compared with corresponding normal controls. Overexpression of GPX3 markedly suppressed proliferation, colony formation, migration and invasion of breast cancer in vitro. Moreover, two potential mechanisms responsible for GPX3 downregulation in breast cancer, including hypermethylation of GPX3 promoter and release of hsa-miR-324-5p inhibition.

conclusionsCollectively, we demonstrate that GPX3 is markedly downregulated in breast cancer, possesses significant diagnostic and prognostic values and attenuated in vitro growth and metastasis of breast cancer.
