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

Prostate cancer is a common malignant tumor in elderly men. As a novel metabolic-reprogramming molecule, the role of ankyrin repeat domain 22 (ANKRD22) in the tumorigenesis and progression of prostate cancer remains unknown. In the present study, mouse monoclonal antibodies against human ANKRD22 were prepared using recombinant ANKRD22 from prokaryotic expression and validated. Subsequently, these antibodies were used to evaluate ANKRD22 levels via immunohistochemical staining in prostate cancer tissues. Finally, the association between ANKRD22 levels and prostate cancer progression was analyzed in 636 samples of prostate cancer using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. A total of four anti-ANKRD22 monoclonal antibodies were generated and validated, which could be effectively blocked by recombinant ANKRD22 protein. Using these antibodies for immunohistochemical staining, ANKRD22 was detected in prostate cancer cells in both the cytoplasm and nucleus. Bioinformatics analysis demonstrated that the mRNA level of ANKRD22 was inversely associated with prostate cancer stage (P<0.05) and Gleason score (P<0.01) in TCGA database. Patients with higher ANKRD22 mRNA levels exhibited longer disease-free survival following radical prostatectomy. These findings suggest that ANKRD22 may negatively regulate the progression of prostate cancer. The prepared ANKRD22 antibodies with high specificity provide a powerful tool in ANKRD22 research.
