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

Bladder cancer is a common malignancy whose lethality is determined by invasive potential. We have previously shown that TRIM29, also known as ATDC, is transcriptionally regulated by TP63 in basal bladder cancers where it promotes invasive progression and metastasis, but the molecular events which promote invasion and metastasis downstream of TRIM29 remained poorly understood. Here we identify stimulation of bladder cancer migration as the specific role of TRIM29 during invasion. We show that TRIM29 physically interacts with K14+ intermediate filaments which, in turn, regulates focal adhesion stability. Further, we find that both K14 and the focal adhesion protein, ZYX are required for bladder cancer migration and invasion. Taken together, these results establish a role for TRIM29 in the regulation of cytoskeleton and focal adhesions during invasion and identify a pathway with therapeutic potential.
