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

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive subtype of breast cancer with high vascularity and frequent metastasis. Tumor-associated abnormal vasculature was reported to accelerate TNBC metastasis. Scutellarin (SC) is a natural flavonoid with a cardiovascular protective function. In this study, SC reduced TNBC metastasis and alleviated tumor-associated vascular endothelial barrier injury in vivo. SC rescued the tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα)-induced diminishment of endothelial junctional proteins and dysfunction of the endothelial barrier in vitro. SC reduced the increased transendothelial migration of TNBC cells through a monolayer composed of TNFα-stimulated human mammary microvascular endothelial cells (HMMECs) or human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). TNFα induced the nuclear translocation of enhancer of zeste homolog-2 (EZH2), and its chemical inhibitor GSK126 blocked TNFα-induced endothelial barrier disruption and subsequent TNBC transendothelial migration. TNF receptor 2 (TNFR2) is the main receptor by which TNFα regulates endothelial barrier breakdown. Extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK)1/2 was found to be downstream of TNFα/TNFR2 and upstream of EZH2. Additionally, SC abrogated the TNFR2-ERK1/2-EZH2 signaling axis both in vivo and in vitro. Our results suggest that SC reduced TNBC metastasis by suppressing TNFα-initiated vascular endothelial barrier breakdown through rescuing the reduced expression of junctional proteins by regulating the TNFR2-ERK1/2-EZH2 signaling pathway.
