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

Introduction: Bladder cancer (BLCA) is a common malignant tumor of the urinary system. The development and progression of BLCA are controlled by multiple regulatory molecules, which have not been widely investigated. Methods: In this study, we explored the functions and downstream targets of serine hydroxy methyltransferase 2 (SHMT2) by silencing its expression using small interference RNA (siSHMT2) in HT-1376 cells. Whole transcriptome and metabolism profiles were deeply analyzed to identify the molecular targets of SHMT2. Results: We found that siSHMT2 significantly reduced the proliferation rate and altered the cell cycle stages of HT-1376 cells. Moreover, siSHMT2 can modulate the expression of hundreds of genes (DEGs), including 126 upregulated and 106 downregulated DEGs. We then found that the most significant DEGs were tightly associated with progression of cancers, including Discussion: In summary, we highlight the important roles of SHMT2 in HT-1376 cells and identified its downstream molecular targets, which are associated with the development of BLCA and can be used as therapeutic targets of BLCA in future.
