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

objectiveDysregulation of the cell cycle is associated with the progression of malignant cancer, but its precise functional contribution is unknown. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe expression of EIF1AX in breast cancer tissues was detected by qRT-PCR and immunohistochemistry staining. Colony formation and tumour xenograft assays were used to examine the tumorigenesis-associated function of EIF1AX in vitro and in vivo. RNA-Seq analysis was used to select the downstream target genes of EIF1AX. Flow cytometry, ChIP and luciferase assays were used to investigate the molecular mechanisms by which EIF1AX regulates p21 in breast cancer cells.

resultsEIF1AX promoted breast cancer cell proliferation by promoting the G1/S cell cycle transition. A mechanistic investigation showed that EIF1AX inhibited the expression of p21, which is an essential cell cycle regulator. We identified that the transcriptional regulation of p21 by EIF1AX was p53-independent. Clinically, EIF1AX levels were significantly elevated in breast cancer tissues, and the high level of EIF1AX was associated with lower survival rates in breast cancer patients.

conclusionsOur results imply that EIF1AX may play a key role in the incidence and promotion of breast cancer and may, thus, serve as a valuable target for breast cancer therapy.
