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

backgroundATPase copper transporting beta (ATP7B) functions as a copper-transporting ATPase that ejects copper from cells. Although high expression of ATP7B has been reported to increase cisplatin resistance, its role in breast cancer (BC) remains unclear. This study aimed to elucidate the function of ATP7B in BC cells and its significance in patients with BC.

methodsThe mRNA and protein expression levels of ATP7B were evaluated in BC and non-cancerous mammary cell lines. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) array analysis was conducted to determine the correlation between ATP7B and 84 cancer-related genes. ATP7B knockdown was performed using small interfering RNA, and cell proliferation, invasiveness, and migration were analyzed. The associations between the mRNA and protein expression of ATP7B and clinicopathological factors were also investigated in 156 patients with BC.

resultsATP7B was found to be highly expressed in estrogen receptor-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive BC cell lines. PCR array analysis revealed a significant correlation between the expression level of ATP7B and those of cadherin 1, estrogen receptor 1, and MET proto-oncogene. ATP7B knockdown significantly increased the proliferation, invasiveness, and migration of MDA-MB-361 and MDA-MB-415 cells. Patients with high ATP7B expression at the mRNA and protein levels experienced favorable prognoses. In addition, ATP7B expression level was identified as an independent prognostic factor in multivariate analysis.

conclusionsATP7B is involved in promoting anti-cancer activities of tumor suppressors in BC cells across different subtypes and is considered a prognostic marker for BC.
