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

The prognosis for cervical cancer (CCa) patients with lymph node metastasis (LNM) is dismal. Elucidation of the molecular mechanisms underlying LNM may provide clinical therapeutic strategies for CCa patients with LNM. However, the precise mechanism of LNM in CCa remains unclear. Herein, we demonstrated that protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type M (PTPRM), identified from TCGA dataset, was markedly upregulated in CCa with LNM and correlated with LNM. Moreover, PTPRM was an independent prognostic factor of CCa patients in multivariate Cox's proportional hazards model analysis and associated with poor prognosis. Furthermore, through gain-of-function and loss-of-function approaches, we found that PTPRM promoted CCa cells proliferation, migration, invasion, lymphangiogenesis, and LNM. Mechanistically, PTPRM promoted epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) via Src-AKT signaling pathway and induced lymphangiogenesis in a VEGF-C dependent manner, resulting in LNM of CCa. Importantly, knockdown of PTPRM dramatically reduced LNM in vivo, suggesting that PTPRM plays an important role in the LNM of CCa. Taken together, our findings uncover a novel molecular mechanism in the LNM of CCa and identify PTPRM as a novel prognostic factor and potential therapeutic target for LNM in CCa.
