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

backgroundEnhanced glucose uptake and autophagy are means by which cells adapt to stressful microenvironments. In this study, we investigated the roles of glucose transporter-1 (GLUT-1) and autophagy in laryngeal carcinoma stem cells under hypoxic and low-glucose conditions. MATERIALS AND

methodsCD133-positive Tu212 laryngeal carcinoma stem cells were purified by magnetic-activated cell sorting and subjected to hypoxic and/or low-glucose conditions. Proliferation was evaluated using a cell-counting kit and a clone-formation assay, and migration capability was measured through a Transwell assay. Autophagy was assessed using transmission electron microscopy. Gene silencing was monitored using shRNA technology and autophagy regulation was manipulated using rapamycin, 3-MA, or chloroquine. Gene expression levels were evaluated by quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and protein levels were assessed via Western blotting.

resultsCompared to CD133-negative cells, CD133-positive cells showed increased proliferation and migration capabilities, and reduced apoptosis, under hypoxic or low-glucose conditions. CD133-positive cells also showed increased expression of GLUT-1 and autophagy activity. Finally, GLUT-1 knockdown or autophagy inhibition reduced the proliferation and migration of CD133-positive laryngeal carcinoma stem cells.

conclusionEnhanced glucose uptake and autophagy maintain the tumor behaviors of CD133-positive laryngeal carcinoma stem cells under hypoxic and low-glucose conditions.
