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

This study was designed to investigate the effect of stomatin-like protein 2 (SLP-2) on the apoptosis and autophagy of gastric cancer cells and its underlying mechanism. The expression of SLP-2 was detected in human gastric cancer cell lines (AGS, MKN-45 and NCI-N87) and a human gastric epithelial cell line (GES-1) using reverse transcription-quantitative PCR and western blot analysis. SLP-2-specific small interfering RNA (siRNA) was transfected into NCI-N87 cells. Cell Counting Kit-8 was used to detect cell proliferation. Apoptosis rates were measured using flow cytometry. Autophagosomes were observed by transmission electron microscopy. The expression levels of Annexin A2 (ANXA2), β-catenin, Bcl-2, Bax, Beclin-1 and LC3-II/I were also measured. The results demonstrated that SLP-2 siRNA transfection significantly reduced cell proliferation and increased cell apoptosis. The mitochondria were severely damaged, and a large number of autophagosomes were seen in SLP-2 siRNA-transfected NCI-N87 cells. Furthermore, the expression levels of ANXA2, β-catenin and Bcl-2 were downregulated, whereas those of Bax, Beclin-1 and LC3-II/I were upregulated following SLP-2 siRNA transfection. In conclusion, SLP-2 silencing can inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis and autophagy of gastric cancer cells, and this effect may be related to the inhibition of ANXA2/β-catenin signaling pathway.
