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

purposeWe aimed to investigate the mechanisms of action on Klotho that underlie cancer development in RET fusion models of human papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). MATERIALS AND

methodsNormal Nthy-ori 3-1 thyroid cells and two PTC cell lines (BHP10-3 and TPC-1), which were used as RET fusion models of PTC, were used to study Klotho. Klotho expression was analyzed by Western blotting. Klotho overexpression cell lines were constructed using the two types of PTC cells. Cell proliferation and apoptosis were assessed. Western blotting was used to detect the expression of proteins in the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. In addition, an activator and an inhibitor of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway were used to confirm that Klotho regulates the pathway in PTC cells. Mice were used to analyze the in vivo effect of Klotho on tumor growth and the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

resultsIn BHP10-3 and TPC-1 cells, Klotho expression was low. After Klotho overexpression, the cell proliferation was significantly suppressed and apoptosis was significantly increased (p<0.05). Wnt1, β-catenin, and CyclinD1 expression were also significantly decreased after Klotho overexpression (p<0.05). Administration of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway activator attenuated the effect of Klotho overexpression (p<0.05). In vivo, the tumor growth was suppressed, and apoptosis of the cancer cells in the tumors were increased after Klotho overexpression. However, injection of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway activator attenuated the effects of Klotho overexpression.

conclusionKlotho inhibits cell proliferation in RET fusion models of PTC by inhibiting the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, providing a potential target for developing treatment for PTC.
