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

purposeTo detect the expression of AGO1 in cholangiocarcinoma and explore its role and significance in the progression of cholangiocarcinoma. PATIENTS AND

methodsUsing immunohistochemistry, Western blotting and qPCR, we examined the expression of AGO1 in cholangiocarcinoma tissues. Through the analysis of clinical case data, the relationship between AGO1 and clinical prognosis was explored. The effect of AGO1 on cholangiocarcinoma was verified by cell functional experiments. Finally, we examined the effects of AGO1 on EMT-related proteins and signaling pathways.

resultsAGO1 is significantly upregulated in cholangiocarcinoma and is associated with the prognosis of cholangiocarcinoma. AGO1 can significantly increase the proliferation, migration and invasion of cholangiocarcinoma cell lines. AGO1 affects the prognosis of cholangiocarcinoma by affecting epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related TGF-β-PI3K-AKT signaling pathways.

conclusionAGO1 is an independent predictor of cholangiocarcinoma prognosis and a potential target for the treatment of cholangiocarcinoma.
