Upregulation of Cullin 4B Promotes Gastric Cancer and Predicts Poor Prognosis.
Article in OncoTargets and therapy, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
aimCullin 4B (CUL4B) is a member of the cullin ubiquitin-ligase family, which participates in proteolysis. Aberrant CUL4B expression has been shown in many malignancies. This study aimed to elucidate oncogenic role of CUL4B in gastric cancer (GC).
methodsCUL4B expression in GC tissues was examined by RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry. The proliferation, invasion and tumorigenicity of GC cells with CUL4B overexpression or knockdown were evaluated.
resultsCUL4B expression significantly increased in GC tissues, and was correlated to UICC stage and differentiation of GC, as well as poor overall survival and disease-free survival. Both univariate and multivariate analysis identified CUL4B as an independent predictor for GC patient prognosis. In addition, CUL4B promoted GC cell proliferation and invasion in vitro and tumor formation in vivo.
conclusionCUL4B is overexpressed to promote GC development and progression. CUL4B is a promising prognostic marker and therapeutic target for GC.
