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

objectiveUp-frameshift protein 1 (UPF1) can contribute to the progression of a variety of cancers. Currently, there is limited research on UPF1 in cervical cancer, and further investigation is necessary to understand its regulatory mechanisms in cervical cancer.

methodsmRNA expression was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, while protein expression was quantified by western blotting assay. Cell function was assessed by cell counting kit-8 assay, Transwell assay and wound-healing assay. A xenograft mouse model assay was performed to analyze the effect of UPF1 silencing on tumor formation. Differentially expressed genes in cell samples were screened using the R Bioconductor package DESeq2. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) functional enrichment analysis was performed to determine the functional categories of the differentially expressed genes.

resultsUPF1 expression was downregulated in cervical cancer tissues and cells. Additionally, UPF1 silencing promoted invasion and migration of cervical cancer cells and tumor formation. There were a total of 188 upregulated genes in the SiHa cells after UPF1 silencing. Biological analysis showed that these upregulated genes were enriched in pathways related to regulation of cell proliferation, positive regulation of gene expression, cell adhesion, and Hippo signaling pathway. Additionally, UPF1 depletion promoted SiHa cell proliferation, invasion and migration, whereas the effects were attenuated after silencing of bone morphogenetic protein 6 (

conclusionUPF1 inhibited cervical cancer cell migration and invasion through the regulation of nonsense-mediated decay of
