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

Nucleolar protein 3 (NOL3), as a markedly increased protein across a range of tumors, has been well acknowledged that plays an anti-apoptotic role in malignancies, while some novel impacts of NOL3 on metastasis and chemoresistance are demonstrated recently. In this study, we uncover another role of NOL3 on promoting proliferation in bladder cancer (BLCA). The reduction of NOL3 significantly inhibited cell proliferation, and we detected the stable cell cycle arrest after knockdown of NOL3 in two-type BLCA cell lines. Mechanistically, we present the first evidence that the PI3K/Akt pathway was considerably inhibited with the decrease of NOL3 in BLCA cell lines. In addition, LY294002, a PI3K inhibitor, rescued NOL3 overexpression-mediated activation of the PI3K/Akt axis and the depression of proliferation in BLCA cell lines. In conclusion, our study suggests that NOL3 is upregulated in BLCA cells and promotes proliferation via the PI3K/Akt pathway, indicating that NOL3 may be a potential therapeutic target for BLCA.
