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

backgroundHuman MARCH5 is a mitochondria-localized E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that is essential for the regulation of mitochondrial dynamics. A large body of evidence suggests that imbalances in mitochondrial dynamics are strongly associated with cancer. However, the expression, biological function and prognostic significance of MARCH5 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have not been determined. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe mRNA and protein expression of MARCH5 in HCC cell lines and tumor tissues was assessed by real-time quantitative PCR, Western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry. The clinical prognostic significance of MARCH5 was evaluated in 135 HCC patients. Knockdown or overexpression of MARCH5 in HCC cells was determined by in vitro cell proliferation, migration and invasion assays, and in vivo tumor growth and metastasis assays. In addition, the intrinsic mechanisms by which MARCH5 regulates HCC cell growth and metastasis were explored.

resultsMARCH5 was significantly overexpressed in HCC cells and was closely associated with patients' poor postoperative prognosis. In vivo and in vitro experiments revealed that MARCH5 significantly promoted the increase and invasive and migratory ability of hepatocellular carcinoma cells, which was mainly due to the promotion of autophagy by MARCH5. Mechanistic studies revealed that MARCH5 promoted autophagy through ubiquitination degradation of p53 leading to malignant progression of hepatocellular carcinoma.

conclusionOur findings suggest that MARCH5 plays a critical oncogenic role in HCC cells, which provides experimental evidence for the use of MARCH5 as a potential target for HCC therapy.
