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

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of most prevalent cancers worldwide, especially in China. Lacking in depth mechanism study, effective targets and therapeutics are desperately needed in the clinic. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) mediate the localization, stability, and translation of the target transcripts and fine-tune the physiological functions of the proteins encoded. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that IGF2BPs were highly expressed in ESCC tissues and at least participated in the regulation of cell proliferation of ESCC cells. Biological researches demonstrated that IGF2BP2 promoted the cell proliferation, migration and invasion of ESCC KYSE30 and KYSE450 cells. IGF2BP2 could bind to EIF4A1 mRNA by recognition of m6A sites and enhanced translation of EIF4A1. IGF2BPs, as m6A reader, IGF2BPs were oncogenic genes in ESCC by regulating the expression of EIF4A1 through m6A sites. IGF2BP2, EIF4A1 and their targets could serve as potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for ESCC, offering promising novel approaches for the diagnosis and treatment of ESCC.
