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

ZFP36L1, which is a negative regulator of gene transcripts, has been proven to regulate the progression of several carcinomas. However, its role in sarcoma remains unknown. Here, by using data analyses and in vivo experiments, we found that ZFP36L1 inhibited the lung metastasis of osteosarcoma (OS). Knockdown of ZFP36L1 promoted OS cell migration by activating TGF-β signaling and increasing SDC4 expression. Intriguingly, we observed a positive feedback loop between SDC4 and TGF-β signaling. SDC4 protected TGFBR3 from matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-mediated cleavage and therefore relieved the inhibition of TGF-β signaling by soluble TGFBR3, while TGF-β signaling positively regulated SDC4 transcription. We also proved that ZFP36L1 regulated SDC4 mRNA decay through adenylate-uridylate (AU)-rich elements (AREs) in its 3'UTR. Furthermore, treatment with SB431542 (a TGF-β receptor kinase inhibitor) and MK2 inhibitor III (a MAPKAPK2 inhibitor that increases the ability of ZFP36L1 to degrade mRNA) dramatically inhibited OS lung metastasis, suggesting a promising therapeutic approach for the treatment of OS lung metastasis.
