KIF23 enhances cell proliferation in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and is a potent therapeutic target.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 34 papers.
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.
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
backgroundIn recent research, high expression of kinesin family member 23 (KIF23), one of the kinesin motor proteins involved in the regulation of cytokinesis, has been shown to be related to poor prognosis in glioma and paclitaxel-resistant gastric cancer, as a results of the enhancement of proliferation, migration, and invasion. In this study, we analyzed the role of KIF23 in the progression of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
methodsA bioinformatic method was used to analyze the KIF23 mRNA level in pancreatic tumor tissues compared with normal pancreatic tissues and to analyze the connection between high KIF23 expression and prognosis. We examined the expression of KIF23 using immunohistochemistry and analyzed the connection between the expression of KIF23 and clinicopathological features in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patients. In addition, a colony formation assay, MTT assay, and western blot assay were performed
resultsBioinformatic results showed that KIF23 mRNA expression was higher in pancreatic tumor tissues than in normal pancreatic tissues and a poor prognosis has been linked to the high expression of KIF23. Immunohistochemistry revealed that KIF23 was highly expressed at the protein level and high expression of KIF23 correlated with adverse clinicopathological features. Our experimental results demonstrated that knockdown of KIF23 could inhibit the proliferation of pancreatic cells. Further, a positive correlation between KIF23 and CDCA8 expression existed, and KIF23 might promote pancreatic cancer proliferation by affecting CDCA8 expression.
conclusionsOur data showed that high expression of KIF23 is associated with a poor prognosis, and KIF23 might be a potential therapeutic target for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
