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

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignant tumors, with the characteristics of high mortality and low 5-year survival rate. The potential role of BTF3 and PDCD2L in HCC remains unclear. Our study found that BTF3 expression was upregulated in hepatocellular carcinoma tissues, and its high expression was associated with poor prognosis. Knockdown of BTF3 significantly inhibited proliferation and promoted apoptosis of hepatocellular carcinoma cells by cell function assay. Mechanistically, BTF3 plays an oncogenic role by regulating the transcriptional expression of PDCD2L, which promotes proliferation and inhibits apoptosis of HCC cells by restraining the p53 pathway. In conclusion, our results suggest that BTF3 induces malignant progression of HCC by acting as a transcription factor that promotes the transcription of PDCD2L and influences the p53 pathway and that the BTF3/PDCD2L/P53 axis may be a future therapeutic strategy for HCC patients.
