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

Gastric cancer is one of the most lethal cancers worldwide. FYN, a gene that is differentially expressed in gastric cancer, is considered a critical metastasis regulator in several solid tumors, but its role in gastric cancer is still unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the role of FYN and test whether FYN promotes migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells in vitro and in vivo via STAT3 signaling. FYN was overexpressed in gastric cancer and positively correlated with metastasis. FYN knockdown significantly decreased cancer cell migration and invasion, whereas FYN overexpression increased cancer migration and invasion. Genetic inhibition of FYN decreased the number of metastatic lung nodules in vivo. Several epithelial-mesenchymal transition markers were positively correlated with FYN expression, indicative of FYN involvement in this transition. Furthermore, gene set enrichment analysis of a Cancer Genome Atlas dataset revealed that the STAT3 signaling pathway was positively correlated with FYN expression. STAT3 inhibition reversed the FYN-mediated epithelial-mesenchymal transition and suppressed metastasis. In conclusion, FYN promotes gastric cancer metastasis possibly by activating STAT3-mediated epithelial mesenchymal transition and may be a novel therapeutic target for gastric cancer.
