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

backgroundLiver is the most frequent metastatic site of gastric cancer (GC), especially in patients with HER2 positive GC. Exosomal integrin αvβ5 has been shown to promote liver metastasis (LM), and the cross talk between integrins and HER2 during breast cancer metastasis has been reported. However, whether there's an association between HER2 and integrin αvβ5 (ITGAvB5), and whether their association has predictive value in GC liver metastasis (GCLM) remains unknown.

methodsThe association between ITGβ5 and HER2 were accessed by RT-PCR, western blot and ELISA. We tested the function of ITGβ5 on HER2 positive GC cells using Transwell assays and scratch assays. Besides, we detect ITGβ5 expression in tumor tissue of GC patients and exosomes derived from advanced GC to analyze the association between HER2 and LM.

resultsIn our study, we found that ITGβ5, rather than ITGAV, was highly upregulated by HER2 through PI3K-AKT pathways in HER2 positive GC. Overexpression of ITGβ5 promoted the migration and invasion of HER2 positive GC cells

conclusionsOur study demonstrated ITGβ5 is regulated and functions in accordance with HER2 in promoting GCLM. Exosomal ITGβ5 levels might be a potential liquid biopsy biomarker for GCLM.
