The Association of EGFL7 Polymorphism and Expression with Cervical Cancer Susceptibility and Pathogenesis.

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.
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
Purpose: Previous studies have highlighted diverse roles for EGFL7 in various cancers, but its specific function in cervical cancer remains unclear. This study aimed to elucidate the role of EGFL7 in cervical cancer susceptibility and pathogenesis. Methods: We genotyped three EGFL7 SNPs in 694 healthy controls, 408 cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) patients, and 934 cervical cancer (CC) patients using TaqMan probe-based real-time PCR. EGFL7 expression was measured in tumor tissues and cell lines via qRT-PCR. RNA sequencing was used to explore the biological functions of EGFL7 in cervical cancer. Results: The G allele frequency of rs9411260 was significantly elevated in both the cervical cancer (CC) (P = 0.006) and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) (P = 0.016) groups compared to the control group. EGFL7 mRNA expression was markedly downregulated in cervical cancer tissues and HeLa/C33A cells compared to normal tissues and ECT1/E6E7 cells. Furthermore, modulation of EGFL7 expression was found to alter pathways associated with cell adhesion, migration, and ECM-receptor interaction. Conclusion: EGFL7 polymorphisms and expression are associated with cervical cancer susceptibility. Dysregulated EGFL7 appears to contribute to cervical cancer progression by affecting cell adhesion and migration, offering new insights into its pathogenesis and potential therapeutic targets.
