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

Interleukin (IL)-17 has been regarded as a significant factor in inflammation. In addition, IL-17 is known to be involved in the progression of cancers; however, the function of IL-17 in cervical cancer remains unclear. In the present study, cell viability was detected by Cell Counting Kit-8 assay. Quantitative PCR and western blotting were performed to detect gene and protein expression levels, respectively, in cancer cells or tissues. Ki-67 staining was used to evaluate cell proliferation. Wound-healing assay was used to detect cell migration. Moreover, Transwell assay was performed to investigate the invasion of cervical cancer cells. The results revealed that IL-17 significantly promoted the proliferation of cervical cancer cells. Additionally, IL-17 notably enhanced the migration and invasion of cervical cancer cells
