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

Currently, the controversy regarding the expression profile and function of BUB1B in different malignancies still exist. In this project, we aimed to explore the role and molecular mechanism of BUB1B in the progression of extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ECC). The expression levels of BUB1B in human ECC were evaluated by immunohistochemistry, western blot, and real-time PCR. The role and mechanism of BUB1B in CCA cell proliferation and invasion were investigated in both in vitro and in vivo functional studies. To indicate the clinical significance, a tissue microarray was performed on 113 ECC patients, followed by univariate and multivariate analyses. The expression of BUB1B was increased in both human CCA tissues and CCA cells. Results from loss-of-function and gain-of-function experiments suggested that the inhibition of BUB1B decreased the proliferation and invasiveness of CCA cells in vitro and in vivo, while overexpression of BUB1B achieved the opposite effect. Furthermore, the activation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase-c-Jun (JNK)-c-Jun pathway was regulated by BUB1B. BUB1B regulated the proliferation and invasiveness of CAA cells in a JNK-c-Jun-dependent manner. Clinically, ECC patients with BUB1B high expression had worse overall survival and recurrence-free survival than those with BUB1B low expression. Multivariate analysis identified that BUB1B was an independent predictor for postoperative recurrence and overall survival of ECC patients. In conclusion, BUB1B promoted ECC progression via JNK/c-Jun pathways. These findings suggested that BUB1B could be a potential therapeutic target and a biomarker for predicting prognosis for ECC patients.
