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

backgroundMETTL16 has recently emerged as an N6-methyladenosine (m

methodsThe expression of METTL16 and G2 and S phase-expressed-1 (GTSE1) in LUAD was evaluated by qRT-PCR or western blotting. LUAD cell malignancy was checked by CCK-8, wound healing, and transwell invasion assays. The relationship among METTL16 and GTSE1 was determined via Pearson correlation analysis and MeRIP assay. The p53 pathway-related proteins were detected by western blotting, and cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry.

resultsMETTL16 was elevated in LUAD, and its silencing significantly reduced LUAD cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. GTSE1 was significantly downregulated upon silencing METTL16. Furthermore, increased levels of GTSE1 mRNA and protein were found in LUAD, and it was correlated positively with METTL16 in LUAD tissues. The stability of GTSE1 was modulated by METTL16 in an m

conclusionsThese results indicate that METTL16-mediated m
