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

backgroundOur previous study found that bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) promote Helicobacter pylori (H pylori)-associated gastric cancer (GC) progression by secreting thrombospondin-2 (THBS2). Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are important carriers for intercellular communication, and EVs secreted by BMSCs have been shown to be closely related to tumor development. The aim of this study was to investigate whether BMSC-derived microvesicles (MVs, a main type of EV) play a role in H. pylori-associated GC by transferring THBS2.

methodsBMSCs and THBS2-deficient BMSCs were treated with or without the supernatant of H. pylori for 12 h at a multiplicity of infection of 50, and their EVs were collected. Then, the effects of BMSC-derived MVs and THBS2-deficient BMSC-derived MVs on the GC cell line MGC-803 were assessed by in vitro proliferation, migration, and invasion assays. In addition, a subcutaneous xenograft tumor model, a nude mouse intraperitoneal metastasis model, and a tail vein injection metastasis model were constructed to evaluate the effects of BMSC-derived MVs and THBS2-deficient BMSC-derived MVs on GC development and metastasis in vivo.

resultsBMSC-derived MVs could be readily internalized by MGC-803 cells. BMSC-derived MVs after H. pylori treatment significantly promoted their proliferation, migration and invasion in vitro (all P < 0.05) and promoted tumor development and metastasis in a subcutaneous xenograft tumor model, a nude mouse intraperitoneal metastasis model, and a tail vein injection metastasis model in vivo (all P < 0.05). The protein expression of THBS2 was significantly upregulated after H. pylori treatment in BMSC-derived MVs (P < 0.05). Depletion of the THBS2 gene reduces the tumor-promoting ability of BMSC-MVs in an H. pylori infection microenvironment both in vitro and in vivo.

conclusionOverall, these findings indicate that MVs derived from BMSCs can promote H. pylori-associated GC development and metastasis by delivering the THBS2 protein. Video Abstract.
