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

Ring finger protein 6 (RNF6) is implicated in various human malignancies, but its function in cervical cancer (CC) is incompletely understood. Here, we explored the biological significance of RNF6 in HeLa CC cells and the underlying regulatory mechanisms. The expression of RNF6 was observed to be high in both primary tissues and CC cells. RNF6 promoted HeLa CC cell growth. Knockdown of RNF6 in CC cells resulted in suppression of proliferation and promotion of apoptosis. Moreover, elevation of RNF6 had an adverse effect on the prognosis of CC. Subsequent analyses showed that these effects may be mediated via activation of ERK signaling. These findings provide evidence that the knockdown of RNF6 suppresses the MAPK/ERK pathway to regulate the growth of CC cells, which suggests that RNF6 may have potential as a target for diagnosis and treatment for CC.
