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

Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2T (UBE2T), a member of the E2 family, has been reported to be overexpressed in certain tumor types and to have an important role in the Fanconi anemia pathway. However, the role of UBE2T in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) has not been clarified. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) participate in tumorigenesis by binding to genes and proteins that regulate cell proliferation or cell apoptosis. The aim of this study was to determine the role of UBE2T and the relationship between miR-182-5p and UBE2T in ccRCC. In the present study, UBE2T expression levels in ccRCC tissues and cells were assessed using real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and western blotting. UBE2T protein expression was assessed in a total of 93 ccRCC patients from Peking University First Hospital (PKU) via immunohistochemistry (IHC). The effects of UBE2T knockdown on ccRCC cells were assessed with MTS assays, wound healing assays, Transwell invasion assays and flow cytometry. The effects of in vivo treatment were evaluated through xenograft experiments. The relationship between miR-182-5p and UBE2T was verified with a dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. We found that UBE2T was highly expressed in ccRCC cells and tissues. High UBE2T expression was positively correlated with advanced pathological stage, histological grade, maximum tumor diameter and distant metastasis. Multivariate analysis revealed that UBE2T expression was an independent risk factor for overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) in patients with ccRCC. Knockdown of UBE2T significantly suppressed RCC cell proliferation, migration and invasion. Flow cytometry analysis showed that UBE2T knockdown promoted RCC cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase and increased cell apoptosis. The xenograft model confirmed that suppression of UBE2T significantly delayed tumor formation and growth in vivo. In addition, miR-182-5p inhibited UBE2T protein expression by targeting UBE2T mRNA and then inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of ccRCC cell. Our research reveals that UBE2T likely plays a critical role in ccRCC progression and may be a potential therapeutic target for ccRCC.
