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

Gastric cancer is commonly diagnosed at an advanced stage when metastasis is almost inevitable. Despite numerous novel regulators have been identified in driving gastric cancer progression, much remains unclear due to the complex nature of cancer. Comparison of the transcriptome profiles of gastric primary tumor tissue, with its matched non-tumor and lymph node metastasis revealed frequent stepwise down-regulation of sclerostin domain containing 1 (SOSTDC1) related with tumor progression. Clinically, deficiency of this gene is associated with shortened survival of patients. Our results suggest that SOSTDC1 confers tumor-suppressive features in gastric cancer and silencing of it accelerates tumor growth and promotes the formation of lung metastasis. Although SOSTDC1 displayed limited inhibition of canonical SMAD-dependent bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP) pathway, it remarkably restrained the c-Jun activation and transcription of c-Jun downstream targets in the noncanonical BMP signaling pathway. Furthermore, c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) blockage attenuated cell proliferative and migrative advantages of SOSTDC1 knockdown cell lines. Our study comprehensively elucidated the role of SOSTDC1 in gastric cancer progression and the results translate into potential therapy for gastric cancer.
