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

Interleukin-17A (IL-17A) is an essential inflammatory cytokine in the progress of carcinogenesis. Tobacco smoke (TS) is a major risk factor of lung cancer that influences epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process. However, the potential mechanism by which IL-17A mediates the progression of lung cancer in TS-induced EMT remains elusive. In the present study, it was revealed that the IL-17A level was elevated in lung cancer tissues, especially in tumor tissues of cases with experience of smoking, and a higher IL-17A level was correlated with induction of EMT in those specimens. Moreover, the expression of ΔNp63α was increased in IL-17A-stimulated lung cancer cells. ΔNp63α functioned as a key oncogene that bound to the miR-17-92 cluster promoter and transcriptionally increased the expression of miR-19 in lung cancer cells. Overexpression of miR-19 promoted EMT in lung cancer with downregulation of E-cadherin and upregulation of N-cadherin, while its inhibition suppressed EMT. Finally, the upregulated levels of IL-17A, ΔNp63α, and miR-19 along with the alteration of EMT-associated biomarkers were found in lung tissues of TS-exposed mice. Taken together, the abovementioned results suggest that IL-17A increases ΔNp63α expression, transcriptionally elevates miR-19 expression, and promotes TS-induced EMT in lung cancer. These findings may provide a new insight for the identification of therapeutic targets for lung cancer.
