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

KIN17, well known as a DNA and RNA binding protein, is highly involved in the regulation of tumorigenesis of diverse human cancers, but its function in the cancer progression and metastasis of Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) remains unclear. The aims of this study were to identify the role of KIN17 in RCC. We performed the study with the PI3K/mTOR inhibitor PF-04691502 in vivo and vitro, detected the tumor invasion and migration dysfunction by using Bioinformatics Analysis, IHC, Scratch Wound Healing Assay, Cell Viability Assay, Colony Formation Assays, EdU-647 Labeling, Cell Cycle and Apoptosis Detection by flow cytometer, Western Blotting, Animal Experiment. These findings suggest that the ability of KIN17 is to promote RCC cell proliferation, cycle progression, reduce cell apoptosis, increase cell clone formation, invasion, and increase cell migration and so on. As expected, PI3K/mTOR pathway inhibitor can reverse the ability of KIN17 in vivo and vitro. Meanwhile, PI3K/mTOR pathway inhibitor can reverse the activation of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. Overall, our findings provide preliminary data which suggests KIN17 could be a promising migration and invasion prognostic biomarker, as well as a potential therapeutic target in RCC.
