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

Breast cancer is life threatening among women because its migration by hematogenous metastasis, where, besides biochemical cues, breast circulating tumor cells (CTCs) expose to suspension state and shear stress. However, the combined effects of these mechanical factors on CTCs migration were unclear. Here, suspension state and shear stress were loaded to breast tumor cells (BTCs) to mimic two mechanical cues in the mechanical environment of breast CTCs and the mechanobiological mechanism of suspension state and shear stress regulating the migration of (BTCs) was investigated. The migration and nuclear lamina protein A/C (Lamin A/C) accumulation were enhanced in MDA-MB-231 and SK-BR-3 BTCs exposed to shear stress though lower than that of suspended cells with different yes-associated protein (YAP) subcellular localization. Knockdown of LMNA downregulated and upregulated YAP targets in suspended BTCs and BTCs exposed to shear stress, respectively, which inhibited MDA-MB-231 BTCs migration in vitro and in vivo. Large tumor suppressor (LATS) responded to suspension state and shear stress, knockdown of which decreased the migration of MDA-MB-231 BTCs. These findings uncover the mechanobiological mechanism that suspension state and shear stress antagonistically promote BTCs migration by Lamin A/C and LATS through YAP and the potential for targeting YAP in CTCs prognosis. Shear stress regulates suspended breast cancer cells migration by Lamin A/C and LATS through YAP.
