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

The ectopic expression of insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding protein 2 (IGF2BP2) has been demonstrated to facilitate tumorigenesis and induce proliferation in a various types of cancer. However, the role of IGF2BP2 in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) has yet been fully elucidated. In this regard, the current study assessed the expression patterns and clinical significance of IGF2BP2 in 94 Chinese patients diagnosed with ESCC. Immunohistochemistry and reverse transcription-quantitative PCR assays were employed to assess IGF2BP2 expression in ESCC tissues compared with adjacent healthy tissues. The results revealed that the protein expression of IGF2BP2 was substantially upregulated in ESCC tissues compared with adjacent ESCC tissues. More specifically, higher IGF2BP2 expression strongly associated with tumor node metastasis stage, lymphatic infiltration and lymph node metastasis. Using two ESCC cell lines (TE-1 and TE-10), the inhibition of IGF2BP2 expression by small interfering RNA was proven to induce apoptosis and suppress proliferation, migration and cell cycle progression
