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

BAG3 is constitutively expressed in multiple types of cancer cells and its high expression is associated with tumour progression and poor prognosis of PDAC. However, little is known about the role of BAG3 in the regulation of stromal microenvironment of PDAC. The current study demonstrated that beside PDAC tumour cells, BAG3 was also expressed in some activated stroma cells in PDAC tissue, as well as in activated PSCs. In addition, the current study demonstrated that BAG3 expression in PSCs was involved in maintenance of PSCs activation and promotion of PDACs invasion via releasing multiple cytokines. The current study demonstrated that BAG3-positive PSCs promoted invasion of PDACs via IL-8, MCP1, TGF-β2 and IGFBP2 in a paracrine manner. Furthermore, BAG3 sustained PSCs activation through IL-6, TGF-β2 and IGFBP2 in an autocrine manner. Thereby, the current study provides a new insight into the involvement of BAG3 in remodelling of stromal microenvironment favourable for malignant progression of PDAC, indicating that BAG3 might serve as a potential target for anti-fibrosis of PDAC.
