Krüppel-like Factor 13 Promotes HCC Progression by Transcriptional Regulation of HMGCS1-mediated Cholesterol Synthesis.
Article in Journal of clinical and translational hepatology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 21 papers.
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.
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 and Aims: Krüppel-like factor (KLF) has a role in the occurrence, development and metabolism of cancer. We aimed to explore the role and potential molecular mechanism of KLF13 in the growth and migration of liver cancer cells. Methods: The expression of KLF13 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissues was higher than that in normal tissues according to analysis of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Lentiviral plasmids were used for overexpression and plasmid knockdown of KLF13. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and western blotting were used to detect mRNA and protein expression in HCC tissues and cells. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8), colony formation, cell migration and invasion, and flow cytometry assays were used to assess the Results: The expression of KLF13 was upregulated in HCC tissues and TCGA database. KLF13 knockdown inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of HepG2 and Huh7 cells and increased the apoptosis of Huh7 cells. The opposite effects were observed with the overexpression of KLF13 in SK-Hep1 and MHCC-97H cells. The overexpression of KLF13 promoted the growth of HCC in nude mice and KLF13 transcription promoted the expression of HMGCS1 and the biosynthesis of cholesterol. KLF13 knockdown inhibited cholesterol biosynthesis mediated by HMGCS1 and inhibited the growth and metastasis of HCC cells. Conclusions: KLF13 acted as a tumor promoter in HCC by positively regulating HMGCS1-mediated cholesterol biosynthesis.
