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

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) still remains one of the most fatal human malignant tumors. Long-term survival rate is still extremely pathetic even for patients who receive surgery. Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), which is a physiologic process of morphological as well as genetic changes in carcinoma cells, plays a vital role in aggressiveness of PDAC. Meanwhile EMT is also the reason why pancreatic cancer cells achieve such huge metastatic potentials. Many tumor microenvironmental factors such as cytokines, growth factors, as well as chemotherapeutic agents may induce EMT. Our study provides evidence regarding effects of EMT on pancreatic cancer progression, focusing on the correlation between EMT and other pathways which are crucial to tumor progression, especially vitamin D receptor signaling pathway. Research on signal pathways resulting in EMT inactivation during these disease processes may offer innovative ideas on plasticity of cellular phenotypes as well as possible therapeutic interventions.
