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 a common fatal malignant tumor of the digestive tract; however, its pathogenic mechanism is unknown and lacks specific molecular diagnosis and treatment. Therefore, it is particularly important to identify new tumor biomarkers to enhance the early diagnosis and molecular-targeted therapy of ESCC. Here, we found that the E3 ubiquitin ligase Tripartitemotif-containing33 (TRIM33) is highly expressed in ESCC tissues and cell lines, and is associated with adverse clinical outcomes. We determined that TRIM33 drives aerobic glycolysis to promote tumor growth in vivo and in vitro. In terms of mechanism, TRIM33 binds to p53 to inhibit its stability and promote the expression of downstream glycolysis target genes GLUT1, HK2, PKM2, and LDHA. In addition, TRIM33 promotes the polyubiquitination of P53 K48-linked and proteasome degradation. Further studies have shown that the K351 site of P53 is the key site mediating the ubiquitination of P53 K48-linked to promote aerobic glycolysis in ESCC and tumor cell growth. Our results reveal that the TRIM33-P53 signal axis regulates glycolysis during ESCC and may provide a new perspective for the diagnosis and treatment of ESCC.
