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

Objective: Patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have poor prognoses. Sulfatase 1 (SULF1) is an extracellular neutral sulfatase and is involved in multiple physiological processes. Hence, this study investigated the function and possible mechanisms of SULF1 in NSCLC. Material and Methods: Difference in SULF1 expression level between tumors and normal lung tissues was analyzed through bioinformatics and clinical sampling, and the effects of SULF1 expression on prognosis were investigated through Kaplan-Meier analysis. SULF1 level in NSCLC cells was modulated through small interfering ribonucleic acid interference. NSC228155, which is an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)/mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway agonist, was for handling NSCLC cells. SULF1 expression level was tested through quantitative reverse transcriptase real-time polymerase chain reaction. Cell proliferation, migration, and invasion were evaluated with cell counting kit-8, 5-ethynyl-2-deoxyuridine, and transwell assays, and the levels of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT)- and EGFR/MAPK pathway-related proteins were detected through Western blot. Results: Bioinformatics and clinical samples showed that NSCLC tumor tissues had elevated SULF1 expression levels relative to those of normal tissues ( Conclusion: SULF1 knockdown inhibits the proliferation, migration, invasion, and EMT of NSCLC cells by inactivating EGFR/MAPK pathway.
