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

backgroundStathmin1 (STMN1) is a cytosolic phosphoprotein that regulates cellular microtubule dynamics and is known to have oncogenic activity. Despite several reports, its roles in gastric cancer (GC) remain unclear owing to a lack of analyses of highly metastatic cases. This study aimed to investigate STMN1 as a prognostic and predictive indicator of response to paclitaxel therapy in patients with GC, including inoperable cases.

methodsImmunohistochemical analysis of STMN1 was performed on both operable (n=95) and inoperable GC (n=61) samples. The roles of STMN1 in cancer cell proliferation and sensitivity to a microtubule-targeting drug, paclitaxel, were confirmed by knockdown experiments using GC cell lines.

resultsMultivariate and Kaplan-Meier analyses demonstrated that high STMN1 was predictive of poor prognosis in both the groups. In the operable cohort, STMN1 expression correlated with cancer curability, recurrence, and resistance to adjuvant therapy. A correlation with paclitaxel resistance was observed in inoperable cases. Knockdown of STMN1 in GC cell lines inhibited proliferation and sensitised the cells to paclitaxel by enhancing apoptosis.

conclusionsSTMN1 is a possible biomarker for paclitaxel sensitivity and poor prognosis in GC and could be a novel therapeutic target in metastatic GC.
