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

purposePancreatic cancer is one of the most aggressive cancers. Preclinical and clinical data indicate that Notch 1 ligand jagged1 (JAG1) plays a pro-oncogenic role in several malignant cancers. As yet, however, the role of JAG1 in pancreatic cancer is poorly understood. The objective of the present study was to investigate JAG1 as a therapeutic target in human pancreatic cancer.

methodsExpression levels of Notch signaling molecules were assessed using GEO datasets and Western blot analysis, respectively. Anti-tumor effects following JAG1 silencing were evaluated using in vitro and in vivo assays. Prognostic implications were assessed using GEO datasets.

resultsUsing GEO datasets and Western blot analysis we detected significantly higher JAG1 mRNA and protein expression levels in pancreatic cancer compared to normal pancreatic tissues. JAG1 silencing significantly restrained the growth, migration and invasion of pancreatic cancer cells through the induction of apoptosis and blockade of various kinases independent of the Notch1 pathway. Combined JAG1 silencing and gemcitabine treatment showed synergistic anti-viability effects in human pancreatic cancer cells. JAG1 silencing also resulted in significant anti-cancer effects in vivo and high JAG1 expression was found to be associated with an adverse prognosis in pancreatic cancer patients.

conclusionsFrom our data we conclude that JAG1 may be a promising therapeutic target in pancreatic cancer.
