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 (PCa) metastasis is considered the leading cause of cancer death in males. Therapeutic strategies and diagnosis for stage-specific PCa have not been well understood. Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 38 (ARHGEF38) is related to tumor cell polarization and is frequently expressed in PCa. Microarray data of PCa were downloaded from GEO and TCGA databases. A total of 243 DEGs were screened, of which, 32 genes were upregulated. The results of enrichment analysis showed the participation of these DEGs in the tumor cell metastasis pathway. ARHGEF38 was significantly up-regulated in the four most prevalent cancers worldwide (
