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

G protein subunit Gamma 5 (GNG5) has been found to be involved in regulating glioma progression. However, its function and mechanism in glioblastoma (GBM) progression need to be further elucidated. GBM cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion and stemness were assessed by cell counting kit 8 assay, EdU assay, flow cytometry, transwell assay and sphere formation assay. The mRNA and protein levels of GNG5 and Yin Yang 1 (YY1) were determined by quantitative real-time PCR and western blot (WB). Detection of the glucose consumption, lactate production and ATP/ADP ratios were used to assess cell glycolysis. Besides, Wnt/β-catenin pathway-related protein levels were examined by WB. Mice xenograft model was also constructed to explore GNG5 roles in vivo. GNG5 was highly expressed in GBM, and its silencing inhibited GBM cell proliferation, invasion, stemness and glycolysis, while promoted apoptosis. Transcription factor YY1 could bind to the GNG5 promoter region and induce its expression. GNG5 overexpression reversed the inhibitory effects of YY1 silencing on GBM cell growth, invasion, stemness and glycolysis. YY1/GNG5 axis could activate the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, and Wnt/β-catenin pathway agonists SKL2001 could revert the effects of GNG5 silencing on GBM cell progression. Furthermore, GNG5 facilitated GBM tumor growth by mediating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. YY1-mediated GNG5 promoted GBM progression through the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.
