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

Pseudogenes are pivotal funtional non-coding RNAs in tumorigenesis. Cumulative evidences have shown that pituitary tumor-transforming 3, pseudogene (PTTG3P), serves as an oncogene in multiple human cancers. However, its expression pattern, biological function, and potential targets in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) remain unknown. Here, by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) in 50 cases of ESCC, we found that the expression of PTTG3P, PTTG1 and PTTG2 in esophageal squamous cancer tissues and cell lines were significantly higher than their normal counterparts (P<0.01). Spearman correlation analysis showed that the PTTG3P expression was positively correlated with the PTTG1 and PTTG2 expression in ESCC tissue samples (P<0.05). Additionally, the high expression of PTTG3P in ESCC was significantly correlated with tumor depth, lymph node invasion and TNM stage (P<0.05). We also assessed the function of PTTG3P in vitro by gain-of-function studies. Results showed that enhanced expression of PTTG3P stimulated the migration and invasion of ESCC cells, and promoted the expression level of PTTG1 and PTTG2 in vitro. Furthermore, PTTG3P fulfilled its oncogenic functions by positively regulating its parent gene PTTG1 and PTTG2. Overall, our study indicated that PTTG3P is distinctly overexpressed and exhibited oncogenic role in a PTTG1 and PTTG2 mediated manner in ESCC.
