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

backgroundLung cancer is one of the most common causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide, metabolic disorders are also a problem that puzzles mankind. SREBP is overexpressed in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and is also a key regulator of lipid synthesis. However, the mechanisms by which SREBP regulates the proliferation, migration and invasion in NSCLC remain unclear. MATERIALS AND

methodsCCK-8, colony formation assay, soft agar assay, scratch wound healing assay and transwell assays were performed to detect proliferation, and invasion in NSCLC cells, respectively. In addition, Western blotting assay, qPCR and immunofluorescence were applied to detect the expressions of SREBP1, SREBP2, ki-67, PCNA, Bax, bcl-2, E-cadherin, N-cadherin, Vimentin, PI3K, p-PI3k, AKT, p-AKT, mTOR, p-mTOR in NSCLC cells.

resultsIn this study, downregulation of SREBP significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of A549 and H1299 cells. Moreover, the method of piecewise inhibition was adopted to prove that SREBP is a downstream molecule of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway.

conclusionOur study indicated that downregulation of SREBP inhibited the growth in NSCLC cells via PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. Thus, we suggested SREBP may serve as a potential target for the treatment of patients with NSCLC.
