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

backgroundRenal cell carcinoma or RCC is a type of malignancy commonly occurred in the human kidney especially in the adults. The pathogenesis of RCC involves the complex networking of multiple signaling pathways, and the underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely unclear.

objectivesThis study aimed to elucidate the regulatory functions of UBA2 and explore its potential downstream molecules during the tumor progression in RCC.

methodsIn this paper, the expression of UBA2 and associated molecules was examined by RT-qPCR and western blotting. The proliferative activity of RCC cells was determined using CCK-8 assay and immunofluorescence staining of proliferation-related marker Ki-67. Moreover, the cell distribution and apoptosis were evaluated by flow cytometry.

resultsOur results revealed the upregulation of UBA2 in RCC tissues and cells, and the high-expression of UBA2 was also associated with bigger tumor size, more advanced stage, and poorer overall survival in RCC patients. In addition, UBA2 knockdown was able to suppress the growth of RCC cells and induced cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase. Furthermore, the p53 signaling could be the novel target of UBA2 in RCC, and UBA2 affected the biological behaviors of RCC cells in a p53-dependent manner.

conclusionIn summary, UBA2 was able to enhance the proliferation, inhibit the apoptosis, and suppress cell cycle arrest in RCC cells by targeting the p53 pathway.
