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

Cervical cancer (CC) patients have a poor prognosis and a low 1-year survival rate due to recurrence or pelvic metastasis. The GSE9750 dataset was analyzed to identify hub genes in CC. CCK-8, colony formation assay, EdU, TUNEL, Transwell assays, and western blot analysis for apoptosis-associated markers were conducted to examine CC cell malignant phenotype after different lentiviral vector treatments. Dual-luciferase assay, ChIP, and MSP were used for regulatory assays. P53-regulated apoptosis-inducing protein 1 (TP53AIP1) was lowly expressed in CC tissues and cell lines, and TP53AIP1 overexpression repressed proliferation, migration, and invasion, and induced apoptosis of CC cells by activating the p53 signaling. DNMT3A bound to the TP53AIP1 promoter and transcriptionally repressed TP53AIP1 expression. DNA-methyltransferase 3A (DNMT3A) silencing inhibited CC development and lung metastasis in vivo, but further TP53AIP1 knockdown reversed this phenomenon by disrupting p53-mediated apoptosis. In summary, DNMT3A transcriptionally repressed TP53AIP1 expression to promote CC progression and metastasis.
