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

backgroundAs prostate cancer (PCa) remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related death in men, it is important to develop effective therapeutic approaches for the treatment of metastatic PCa and to improve the accuracy of prognosis for aggressive tumors. Non-POU domain-containing octamer-binding (NONO) is involved in RNA transport and almost all steps of gene regulation, and aberrant expression is associated with tumorigenesis in various tumor entities.

methodsImmunohistochemical analysis of the expression of NONO was performed in a cohort of 405 patient samples, including 54 benign prostate tissues, 250 primary prostate tumors, and 101 metastatic tissue samples. To assess the role of NONO in PCa cells, siRNA-mediated knockdown of NONO in the metastatic PCa cell lines PC3 and DU145, followed by a series of functional assays including proliferation, transwell, western blotting, and real-time quantitative PCR, was used.

resultsThe current study showed that the nuclear expression of NONO increases during the progression of PCa and is highest in distant metastases. NONO regulates cell proliferation by increasing the expression of cell cycle-related genes. In addition, NONO modulates migration and invasion in PCa cells.

conclusionOverall, these results suggest inhibition of NONO may be a promising approach for the treatment of metastatic PCa.
