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

Downregulation of multiple tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) plays an important role in cancer formation. Recent evidence has accumulated that cancer progression involves genome-wide alteration of epigenetic modifications, which may cause downregulation of the tumor suppressor gene. Using hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) as a system, we mapped 5-methylcytosine signal at a genome-wide scale using nanopore sequencing technology to identify novel TSGs. Integration of methylation data with gene transcription profile of regenerated liver and primary HCCs allowed us to identify 10 potential tumor suppressor gene candidates. Subsequent validation led us to focus on functionally characterizing one candidate-glucokinase (GCK). We show here that overexpression of GCK inhibits the proliferation of HCC cells via induction of intracellular lactate accumulation and subsequently causes energy crisis due to NAD+ depletion. This suggests GCK functions as a tumor suppressor gene and may be involved in HCC development. In conclusion, these data provide valuable clues for further investigations of the process of tumorigenesis in human cancer.
