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

backgroundF-box and WD repeat domain containing 7 (FBXW7) is a critical tumor suppressor. The expression of FBXW7 is decreased in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) tissues and shows diagnosis value. We aimed to investigate the influence of FBXW7 overexpression on OSCC cell proliferation and autophagy.

methodsIn Balb/c nude mice, CAL27 xenograft tumor model was established. Western blot was employed to evaluate protein level. Messenger RNA level was analyzed by quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Colony formation assay and MTT assay were employed to evaluate cell proliferation.

resultsFBXW7 expression was decreased in OSCC cell lines. FBXW7 inhibited cell proliferation of SCC9 and CAL27. FBXW7 increased Autophagy related 7 (Atg7), Beclin1 (BECN1), B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL2) -associated X (BAX), BCL2 antagonist killer (BAK), and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3) levels and decreased MCL1 and BCL2 levels in CAL27 cells. FBXW7 decreased tumor volume and weight in CAL27 xenograft tumor model. FBXW7 increased BECN1, Atg7, and LC3 levels in CAL27 xenograft tumor model.

conclusionIn conclusion, decreased expression of FBXW7 is confirmed in diverse OSCC cell lines. The enhanced FBXW7 expression inhibits cancer cell proliferation and promotes autophagy in both OSCC cells and xenograft tumor model.
