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

The alterations of cell surface sialylation play a key role in tumor metastasis. Enhanced α2,6-sialylation on N-glycans results from overexpression of the sialyltransferase ST6Gal-I. Hca-F and Hca-P cells are murine hepatocarcinoma cell lines which metastasize only to the lymph nodes. Our previous study revealed that ST6Gal-I was involved in the adhesion of Hca-F cells to fibronectin. However, the roles of sialic acids in the adhesion of Hca-F cells to lymph nodes still remain poorly understood. In this study, we observed that expression levels of α2,6-linked sialic acids on Hca-F cells were higher compared to Hca-P cells. Knockdown of ST6Gal-I by small hairpin RNA (shRNA) transfection decreased the expression of α2,6-linked sialic acids and inhibited the adhesion of Hca-F cells to lymph nodes. The adhesion ability was reported to be mediated by siglec-2 which preferentially binds to α2,6-linked sialic acids, and in addition, ST6Gal-I knockdown inhibited the phosphorylated levels of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and paxillin when cells were treated with siglec-2. Taken together, these results suggest that interaction of α2,6-linked sialic acids with siglec-2 might modulate the adhesion of hepatocarcinoma cells to lymph nodes through the FAK signaling pathway.
