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

To investigate the potential role of small glutamine-rich TPR-containing protein A (SGTA) in hepatocarcinogenesis, immunohistochemistry and Western blot were performed to detect the expression of SGTA in clinical Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) samples, adjacent nontumorous liver tissues and HCC cell lines. In addition, expression of SGTA was correlated with clinicopathological variables and univariate and multivariate survival analyses were performed to determine the prognostic significance. Moreover, the biological significance of the aberrant expression of SGTA was investigated in vitro. Both immunohistochemistry evaluation and Western blot analyses demonstrated that SGTA was overexpressed in HCC tissues compared with adjacent nontumorous liver tissues. Expression of SGTA directly correlated with the histological grades of HCC and high expression of SGTA was associated with a poor prognosis. SGTA depletion by siRNA inhibited cell proliferation, blocked S-phase and mitotic entry in Huh7 cells. Western blot analyses showed that SGTA depletion decreased cyclin A and cyclin B levels. Taken together, owing to overexpression of SGTA in HCC and its important role in predicting poor prognosis and the development of HCC, SGTA could be a potential prognostic marker and therapeutic target of HCC.
