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

backgroundThe role of kinesin superfamily proteins (KIFs) has been reported in a variety of tumors and KIFs contributed to the proliferation of cancer cells. But few studies were focus on colon adenocarcinoma.

methodsThrough bioinformatics analysis and immunohistochemistry (IHC) assays, the expression of KIF18B in colon adenocarcinoma tissues was determined. Stable KIF18B-depleted cell lines were constructed using lentivirus-mediated shRNA of KIF18B. Cell colony formation assay and CCK8 assay were performed to assess cell proliferation degree, and the expression level of KI67 and PCNA was used to indicate cell proliferation in vitro and verified using xenograft tumors in vivo.

resultsKIF18B is highly expressed in colon adenocarcinoma tissues and has a negative correlation with the prognosis and tumor grade of colon adenocarcinoma. Interfering with KIF18B inhibits cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo.

conclusionKIF18B can be used as a prognostic marker for colon adenocarcinoma and may be a therapeutic target for colon adenocarcinoma treatment.
