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

MAFG antisense 1 (MAFG-AS1) is recently identified as a novel lncRNA and serves as a tumor promoter in several types of human tumor. However, no prior study has been performed to evaluate the role of MAFG-AS1 in gastric cancer. In our study, we found MAFG-AS1 expression was increased in gastric cancer tissue samples compared with normal gastric mucosa tissue samples, and associated with poor overall survival in gastric cancer patients at The Cancer Genome Atlas database. Furthermore, we confirmed the clinical and prognostic significance of MAFG-AS1 in gastric cancer. We found gastric cancer tissues and cell lines had remarkably increased MAFG-AS1 expression in comparison to normal gastric mucosa tissues and normal human gastric epithelial cell line, and high MAFG-AS1 expression was positively associated with diffuse type, advanced clinical stage, extensive depth of invasion, more lymph node metastasis, and present distant metastasis in gastric cancer patients. Moreover, high MAFG-AS1 expression acted as one of the independent poor prognostic factors for overall survival in gastric cancer patients. The loss-of-function study showed knocking down MAFG-AS1 expression inhibited gastric cancer cell proliferation, migration and invasion
