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 the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide and is characterized by poor survival and high recurrence rates. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have gained considerable attention in recent years as prognostic markers and gene regulators in various cancers. Here, we found that lncHEIH was upregulated in gastric cancer tissues and cell lines and positively correlated with high expression levels of EZH2. Mechanistically, the lncHEIH-EZH2 axis could promote the progression of gastric cancer. In addition, lncHEIH encapsulated in exosomes was released by gastric cancer cells and then absorbed by normal gastric cells. The uptake of lncHEIH resulted in the upregulation of EZH2, which inhibited the expression of the tumor suppressor GSDME by methylation of the GSDME promoter, promoting the malignant transformation of normal gastric cells. Overall, lncHEIH promotes gastric cancer progression by upregulating the expression of EZH2 and reducing the expression of GSDME in normal cells to induce malignant cell proliferation and migration, indicating its potential as a target in gastric cancer therapy.
