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

backgroundLong noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been implicated in several human cancers. The expression profile and underlying mechanism of the lncRNA MAP3K1-2 in gastric cancer (GC) are poorly understood.

methodsSixty-one patients with GC were recruited from Shanghai Baoshan Luo Dian Hospital (Shanghai, China). Tumor tissues and paired normal tissues (5 cm adjacent to the tumor) were obtained. Expression of lncRNA MAP3K1-2 in GC cell lines was examined using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Protein expression was detected using Western blot. Cell cycle analysis was assessed using flow cytometry. Cell proliferation was assessed using soft agar assays, and cell invasion was assessed using Transwell assays.

resultsThe expression level of lncRNA MAP3K1-2 was upregulated in GC cells and markedly higher in poorly differentiated cell lines. Silencing treatment of lncRNA MAP3K1-2 significantly inhibited cell proliferation and invasion in GC. In addition, knockdown of lncRNA MAP3K1-2 significantly inhibited the function of important genes in the MAPK signaling pathway. Higher expression of lncRNA MAP3K1-2 was often associated with poorer prognosis in patients with GC.

conclusionslncRNA MAP3K1-2 is a critical effector in GC tumorigenesis and progression, representing novel therapeutic targets. High lncRNA MAP3K1-2 expression may serve as a novel independent prognostic marker for predicting the outcome of GC.
