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

Centrosome amplification (CA), the presence of centrosomes that are abnormally numerous or enlarged, is a well-established driver of tumor initiation and progression associated with poor prognosis across a diversity of malignancies. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) carries one of the most dismal prognoses of all cancer types. A majority of these tumors are characterized by numerical and structural centrosomal aberrations, but it is unknown how CA contributes to the disease and patient outcomes. In this study, we sought to determine whether CA was associated with worse clinical outcomes, poor prognostic indicators, markers of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and ethnicity in PDAC. We also evaluated whether CA could precipitate more aggressive phenotypes in a panel of cultured PDAC cell lines. Using publicly available microarray data, we found that increased expression of genes whose dysregulation promotes CA was associated with worse overall survival and increased EMT marker expression in PDAC. Quantitative analysis of centrosomal profiles in PDAC cell lines and tissue sections uncovered varying levels of CA, and the expression of CA markers was associated with the expression of EMT markers. We induced CA in PDAC cells and found that CA empowered them with enhanced invasive and migratory capabilities. In addition, we discovered that PDACs from African American (AA) patients exhibited a greater extent of both numerical and structural CA than PDACs from European American (EA) patients. Taken together, these findings suggest that CA may fuel a more aggressive disease course in PDAC patients.
