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

Mitochondrial hyperfunction is important for cervical cancer progression. Solute carrier family 30 member 9 (SLC30A9) is a member of the solute carrier family 30, specifically a zinc transporter that plays a critical role in mitochondrial zinc homeostasis and maintaining mitochondrial function. We investigated the expression, function, and underlying mechanisms of SLC30A9 in the context of cervical cancer. Single-cell RNA sequencing analysis revealed a marked overexpression of SLC30A9 within the malignant epithelial cell population of cervical squamous cell carcinoma. This elevated SLC30A9 expression was further corroborated in clinical specimens from local patients and across various established and primary cervical cancer cells. SLC30A9 shRNA or knockout (via CRISPR/Cas9 method) significantly impeded the viability, proliferation, cell cycle progression and migration, and triggered apoptosis in cervical cancer cells. SLC30A9 depletion disrupted mitochondrial function, inhibiting mitochondrial respiration, mitochondrial membrane potential, mitochondrial complex I activity, and ATP production, also caused mitochondrial Zn
