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

backgroundBreast carcinomas are heterogeneous diseases with distinct clinical outcomes and cancer stem cell (CSC) percentages. Exploring breast carcinoma stem cell landscape could help understand the heterogeneity of such cancers with profound clinical relevance.

methodsWe conducted transcriptional profiling of CSCs and non-stem cancer cells isolated from three triple-negative breast carcinoma cell lines, analyzed the CSC transcriptome landscape that drives breast carcinoma heterogeneity through differentially expressed gene identification, gene ontology (GO) and pathway enrichment analyses as well as network construction, and experimentally validated the network hub gene.

resultsWe identified a CSC feature panel consisting of 122 and 381 over-represented and under-expressed genes capable of differentiating breast carcinoma subtypes. We also underpinned the prominent roles of the PI3K-AKT pathway in empowering carcinoma cells with uncontrolled proliferative and migrative abilities that ultimately foster cancer stemness, and revealed the potential promotive roles of ATP6V1B1 on breast carcinoma stemness through functional in vitro studies.

conclusionsOur study contributes in identifying a CSC feature panel for breast carcinomas that drives breast carcinoma heterogeneity at the transcriptional level, which provides a reservoir for diagnostic marker and/or therapeutic target identification once experimentally validated as demonstrated by ATP6V1B1.
