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

MDM2 proto‑oncogene, E3 ubiquitin protein ligase (MDM2) is a well‑known oncogene and has been reported to be closely associated with epithelial‑to‑mesenchymal transition (EMT). The present study first demonstrated that the expression levels of MDM2 were markedly increased in TGF‑β‑induced EMT using quantitative PCR and western blotting. In addition, MDM2 was demonstrated to be associated with pathological grade in clinical glioma samples by immunohistochemical staining. Furthermore, overexpression of MDM2 promoted EMT in glioma, lung cancer and breast cancer cell lines using a scratch wound migration assay. Subsequently, the present study explored the mechanism by which MDM2 promoted EMT and revealed that MDM2 induced EMT by upregulating EMT‑related transcription factors via activation of the B‑Raf signaling pathway through tyrosine 3‑monooxygenase activation protein ε using RNA sequencing and western blotting. This mechanism depended on the p53 gene. Furthermore,
