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

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma occurs in many parts of the pars nasalis pharyngis, and the pathological type is mainly squamous cell carcinoma. Because of the special position of nasopharynx, breathing, pronunciation and daily life will be seriously affected. At present, the research direction of nasopharyngeal carcinoma is mainly to explore the law of tumor cell proliferation and migration, study the molecular mechanism, master its biological behavior and clinical significance, try to find therapeutic targets, and further improve the level of tumor treatment. However, the pathologic structure and molecular mechanism of nasopharyngeal carcinoma have not been fully elucidated. In this study, the Lentivirus-mediated EIF3C shRNA vector (L.V-shEIF3C) was constructed to down-regulate the expression of EIF3C in human pharyngeal squamous carcinoma cell FaDu and the human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell 5-8F, it was found that down-regulation of EIF3C could significantly inhibit the cell proliferation, promote cell apoptosis, induce cell cycle arrest, and inhibit the formation and growth of tumors in mouse models. This study provides strong evidence that EIF3C is a key gene driving the development and progression of head and neck cancer, which is of great significance for the diagnosis, prognosis or treatment of tumors, suggesting that EIF3C may become a valuable therapeutic development and intervention target.
