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

backgroundThe role of EMG1 in the progression of malignant melanoma remains unclear.

methodsExpression levels of EMG1 in melanoma tissues from GEO and TCGA databases was analyzed. The role of EMG1 was determined by overexpression on cell growth, apoptosis, migration and invasion. Glutathione S-transferase (GST) pulldown and co-immunoprecipitation (CoIP) assays were applied to reveal the relationship of EMG1 and nucleolar complex protein 14 (NOP14).

resultsThe expression level of EMG1 was downregulated in melanoma tissues in GSE7553 dataset and further decreased in tissues from metastasis patients from both GEE7553 and TCGA cohorts. Overexpression of EMG1 suppressed proliferation, promoted apoptosis, and inhibited migration and invasion in melanoma cells. EMG1 interacted with NOP14 and functioned together to regulate the growth, apoptosis, migration and invasion of cultured melanoma cells. Furthermore, simultaneous overexpression of EMG1 and NOP14 decreased the levels of WNT3a, β-catenin, phosphorylated-GSK-3β, and c-Myc.

conclusionsEMG1 and NOP14 inhibit melanoma cell proliferation, migration, and invasion by regulating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.
