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

Background: Expression of mRNA is widely regulated by N6-methyladenosine (m Methods: The correlation expression between c-Src and METTL3 between liver cancer patients and the control group was analyzed using the TCGA database, and was further demonstrated by Western blot and RT-qPCR. The functional roles of c-Src in METTL3-regulated liver cancer progression were investigated by cell proliferation assays and colony formation assays. The regulatory mechanism of METTL3 in c-Src expression was accessed by RNA-immunoprecipitation (RIP)-qPCR. Results: We demonstrated that c-Src kinase promoted liver cancer development, and the expression of Conclusion: Results suggested that the METTL3/IRF1/c-Src axis played potential oncogenic roles in liver cancer development and the axis may be a promising therapeutic target in the disease.
