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.

Abstract

backgroundOral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is one of the most common malignant tumors worldwide. Patients with poorly differentiated OSCC often exhibit a poor prognosis. AUNIP (Aurora Kinase A and Ninein Interacting Protein), also known as AIBp, plays a key role in cell cycle and DNA damage repair. However, the function of AUNIP in OSCC remains elusive.

methodsThe differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were obtained using R language. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was performed to identify diagnostic markers for OSCC. The effectiveness of AUNIP in diagnosing OSCC was evaluated by machine learning. AUNIP expression was analyzed in publicly available databases and clinical specimens. Bioinformatics analysis and in vitro experiments were conducted to explore biological functions and prognostic value of AUNIP in OSCC.

findingsThe gene integration analysis revealed 90 upregulated DEGs. One candidate biomarker, AUNIP, for the diagnosis of OSCC was detected, and its expression gradually increased along with malignant differentiation of OSCC. Bioinformatics analysis demonstrated that AUNIP could be associated with tumor microenvironment, human papillomavirus infection, and cell cycle in OSCC. The suppression of AUNIP inhibited OSCC cell proliferation and resulted in G0/G1 phase arrest in OSCC cells. The survival analysis showed that AUNIP overexpression predicted poor prognosis of OSCC patients.

interpretationAUNIP could serve as a candidate diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for OSCC and suppression of AUNIP may be a potential approach to preventing and treating OSCC.
