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

Patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma have much worse prognoses, and much effort has been directed toward understanding the molecular biological aspects of this disease. Accumulated evidence suggests that constitutive activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signalling contributes to the oncogenesis and progression of pancreatic cancer. Transcription factor 7-like2/transcription factor 4 (TCF7L2/TCF4), a β-catenin transcriptional partner, plays a vital role in the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway. In the present study, we investigated the clinicopathological significance of TCF7L2 in pancreatic cancer. Our results demonstrated that patients with higher TCF7L2 expression had worse prognosis. Our in vitro studies demonstrated that TCF7L2 positively regulated aerobic glycolysis by suppressing Egl-9 family hypoxia inducible factor 2 (EGLN2), leading to upregulation of hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha subunit (HIF-1α). The impact of TCF7L2 on aerobic glycolysis was further confirmed in vivo by assessing
