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

G2 and S-phase expressed 1 (GTSE1) regulates cell cycle progression in human cancers. However, its significance and mechanism of action in acral melanoma (AM) remain unknown. In the present study, we found that GTSE1 expression was upregulated in advanced stage/metastatic AM tissues and metastatic cell lines, and correlated with higher stage (P = .028) and poor disease-free survival (DFS) in patients with AM (P = .003). Cox regression assays validated GTSE1 expression to be an independent prognostic factor of DFS for patients with AM (P = .004). Ectopic expression of GTSE1 enhanced primary AM cell proliferation, invasion, and migration. Loss-of-function in GTSE1 attenuated metastatic AM cell proliferation and metastatic ability in vitro and in vivo. We additionally observed that inhibition of migration and invasion occurred concomitantly with a GTSE1 knockdown-mediated increase in E-cadherin and decreases in N-cadherin and Slug. We further showed that integrin subunit alpha 2 (ITGA2) interacts with GTSE1 and is a downstream effector of GTSE1. Further, ITGA2 levels were positively correlated with GTSE1 expression in human AM tissues. Ectopic ITGA2 expression rescued siGTSE1-mediated inhibition of migration and invasion, thereby restoring epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). In conclusion, GTSE1 expression promotes AM progression and correlates with clinical outcomes of patients with AM, and may represent a promising therapeutic target to suppress AM progression.
