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

Hypopharyngeal and laryngeal cancers which belong to head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) are the two most malignant types of head and neck cancer, characterized by a low 5-year survival rate, high recurrence and metastasis rate. It is vital to explore strategies to suppress metastasis and improve prognosis for patients with these cancers. In this research, we analyzed the clinical data and found that E3 ubiquitin ligase TRIM47 was upregulated in cancer tissues of hypopharyngeal cancer and was closely associated with poor survival outcomes. In terms of mechanism, we performed tandem affinity chromatography and denatured Ni-NTA Agarose pulldown. As a result, TRIM47 was found to interact with vimentin and control vimentin stabilization through ubiquitination, specifically in the form of K63 chains. Importantly, through experiments of cancer cell viability and migration, we found that TRIM47 could enhance the proliferation and metastasis abilities of cancer cells in a vimentin-dependent manner, thus promoting the advancement of hypopharyngeal and laryngeal cancers. TRIM47 was verified to regulate cancer cells metastasis in vivo using metastasis models. All these results imply that TRIM47 emerges as a potential biomarker for early diagnosis and metastasis prediction of hypopharyngeal and laryngeal cancers and represents a promising therapeutic target.
