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

CLDN6, a member of claudin (CLDN) family, was found to be a breast cancer suppressor gene in our early experiments. However, CLDN6 was highly expressed in human hepatocellular carcinoma (hHCC) (TCGA database), and the role of CLDN6 in hHCC is still unclear. To investigate the expression of CLDN6, immunohistochemical staining was performed in hHCC tissues. As a result, hHCC tissues highly expressed CLDN6, and the expression was related to the degree of tumor's differentiation. To research the role of CLDN6 in hHCC cells, CLDN6 was silenced in HepG2 and Hep3B cells which highly expressed CLDN6 through liposome transfection. Results showed that after silencing of CLDN6, the proliferation, migration and invasion abilities of hHCC cells were inhibited. Meanwhile, the expression of E-cadherin was upregulated, and the expression of N-cadherin and Vimentin was downregulated. All the results above indicated that CLDN6 promoted the development of hHCC, and could be a potential target for the treatment of it.
