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

Objective: To investigate the effects and mechanisms of human papillomavirus E6 (HPV16 E6) gene mutation on cervical cancer and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade I (CIN I) cell proliferation by regulating brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). Methods: Real-time PCR was employed to measure mRNA levels of HPV16 E6 T350G, BDNF, and p53 in cervical cancer and CIN I tissues. Lentiviral vectors (pLV5-HPV16 E6 T350G and pLV5-vector) were constructed and transfected into human cervical epithelial cells. Real-time PCR validated successful infection and assessed mRNA changes induced by HPV16 E6 T350G. Western Blot was used to detect BDNF protein levels and PI3K/AKT phosphorylation. Cell proliferation was evaluated with the MTT assay, a standard method for assessing cell viability in vitro. Results: Compared with CIN I cervical tissue, HPV16 E6 T350G and BDNF mRNA expression levels were positive in cervical cancer tissue, while p53 mRNA expression was negative; overexpression of HPV16 E6 T350G in human cervical epithelial cells upregulated BDNF mRNA and protein expression and activated its downstream signaling pathway PI3K/AKT, while reducing p53 protein expression; overexpression of HPV16 E6 T350G enhanced the proliferation ability of human cervical epithelial cells. Conclusion: Overexpression of HPV16 E6 T350G can promote the proliferation ability of cervical cancer cells, possibly by upregulating BDNF expression to promote activation of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway and decrease p53 expression.
