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

Background: The treatment of cervical cancer in the late stage is still quite challenging, because of nonspecificity in conventional therapies and the lack of molecular targeted drugs. It is necessary to find novel biomarkers for cervical cancer treatment. Methods: In the present study, cervical cell lines HeLa and SiHa with kin17 knockdown were constructed by transfection of the recombinant lentiviral vector carrying KIN17 siRNA and screened by puromycin. The established cells with kin17 knockdown were determined by fluorescence observation and western blotting. Cell apoptosis and the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) were detected by flow cytometry. The activity of caspase 3 enzyme was tested by spectrophotometry. The expression profile of apoptosis-associated proteins was analyzed by western blotting. Finally, we used bioinformatics and proteomic data to analyze KIN-related genes in cervical cancer. Results: The results showed high fluorescent positive rates (>90%) and high gene silencing efficiency (>65%) in HeLa and SiHa cells transfected with gene silencing vectors. Moreover, kin17 deficiency decreased the MMP and increased the apoptosis rates in HeLa and SiHa cells, respectively. Furthermore, knockdown of kin17 enhanced the activity of caspase 3 enzyme, increased the expression of cleaved PARP and Bim, while decreasing the expression of Bcl-xL and phosphorylated BAD in HeLa and SiHa cells. Identification of KIN-related prognostic genes in cervical cancer revealed that a total of 5 genes (FZR1, IMPDH1, GPKOW, XPA, and DDX39A) were constructed for this risk score, and the results showed that CTLA4 expressions were negatively correlated with the risk score. Conclusion: Our findings demonstrated that kin17 knockdown facilitates apoptosis of cervical cancer cells by targeting caspase 3, PARP, and Bcl-2 family proteins. Besides, kin17 could regulate cancer cell apoptosis through the mitochondrial pathway and could be used as a novel therapeutic target for the regulation of cell apoptosis in cervical cancer.
