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

Translational initiation in protein synthesis is an important regulatory step in gene expression and its dysregulation may result in diseases such as cancer. Translational control by eIF4E/4E-BP has been well studied and contributes to mTOR signaling in various biological processes. Here, we report a novel translational control axis in the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in colon tumorigenesis by eIF3a, a Yin-Yang factor in tumorigenesis and prognosis. We show that eIF3a expression is upregulated in human colon cancer tissues, pre-cancerous adenoma polyps, and associates with β-catenin level and APC mutation in human samples, and that eIF3a overexpression transforms intestinal epithelial cells. We also show that eIF3a expression is regulated by the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway with an active TCF/LEF binding site in its promoter and that eIF3a knockdown inhibits APC mutation-induced spontaneous colon tumorigenesis in APC
