Elevated expression of immunity-related GTPase family M in gastric cancer.

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
Recent researches have suggested that autophagy may play critical roles in tumorigenesis. Immunity-related GTPase family M (IRGM) is a human protein highlighted for its contribution to autophagy upon inflammation and infections. Studies have shown that IRGM is involved in the development of several cancers. In the current study, we investigated expression of IRGM and gastric cancer. Levels of messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein were examined by real-time reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) and Western blot, respectively. Data showed that mRNA level of IRGM was significantly increased in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of gastric cancer patients than in PBMCs from healthy controls (p > 0.05). Moreover, both mRNA and protein levels were significantly higher in cancer tissues compared to adjacent noncancerous stomach tissues (1.28-fold, p < 0.001; 1.19-fold, p < 0.01, respectively). However, the level of IRGM seemed not to be affected by Helicobacter pylori infection. In addition, we investigated the correlation between IRGM expression and cancer stages and identified that stage IV patients had upregulated mRNA level and protein level of IRGM in cancer tissues than those stage I patients. Our findings suggest that expression of IRGM is dysregulated in gastric cancer and that the molecule may affect progression of the disease.
