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

purposeThe roles of T (brachyury) isoforms in chordomas remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the different roles and mechanisms of them in chordomas. PATIENTS AND

methodsThe expression of T isoforms mRNAs in 57 chordomas was assessed, and a prognosis analysis was conducted. Cell apoptosis, proliferation and cell cycle assays were performed after specific T isoform mRNA knockdown. Whole-transcriptome sequencing, Gene Set Enrichment Analysis, Gene Ontology analysis, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis and competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) analysis were conducted.

resultsAs revealed in this study, the T-long isoform was a significant risk factor (hazard ratio [HR], 1.09; P=0.018) and the T-short isoform was a protective factor (HR, 0.24; P=0.012) associated with tumor recurrence. After T-long isoform knockdown, the cell cycle was arrested at G0/G1 phase and cell proliferation was significantly inhibited. A bioinformatic analysis revealed that the upregulation of H19, P21 and GADD45B; downregulation of SKP2 and CDK2; and accompanying changes in the P53 signaling pathway consistently contributed to G0/G1 arrest. After T-short isoform knockdown, the cell cycle was arrested at G2/M phase and cell apoptosis tended to increase slightly (P=0.067). The upregulation of YWHAZ and downregulation of E2F1 and its target genes might contribute to cell cycle arrest in G2/M phase and apoptosis. In addition, the ceRNA network, consisting of long noncoding RNAs, mRNAs and microRNAs, was established.

conclusionThe T-long isoform was a risk factor and the T-short isoform was a protective factor for chordoma recurrence. In addition, the cell cycle was the main target of T isoforms knockdown, and the changes in the downstream transcriptome may contribute to the different effects of specific T isoform knockdown on the changes in the cell cycle distributions and apoptosis and proliferation of chordoma cells.
