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

Deubiquitinating enzyme OTU domain-containing ubiquitin aldehyde-binding proteins 1 (OTUB1) has been shown to have an essential role in multiple carcinomas. However, the function of OTUB1 in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) and the underlying mechanisms regulating PTC cells proliferation remain poorly understood. In this study, OTUB1 was significantly upregulated in papillary thyroid carcinoma tissues and cells. Through in vitro and in vivo experiments, knockdown of OTUB1 suppressed PTC cells growth whereas OTUB1 overexpression enhanced the proliferation ability of PTC cells. Moreover, the eyes absent homologue 1 (EYA1) was recognized as a potential target of OTUB1 through mass spectrometry analysis, and we further verified that EYA1 protein level was positively correlated with OTUB1 expression in PTC cells and clinical samples. Mechanistically, OTUB1 could interact with EYA1 directly and deubiquitinate EYA1 to stabilize it. At last, EYA1 was found to play an essential role in OTUB1-derived PTC cells growth. Overall, our investigation reveals that OTUB1 is a previously unrecognized oncogenic factor in PTC cells proliferation and suggests that OTUB1 might be a novel therapeutic target in PTC.
