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

backgroundALDOA plays an essential role in cancer progression in different human cancers; however, its function has not been understood in prostate cancer (PCa).

methodsAssociations of ALDOA expression with clinicopathological features and patient prognosis in PCa were evaluated based on data obtained from the Taylor database and our clinical tissue microarray. The potential roles of ALDOA in malignant progression were verified using a series of in vivo and in vitro experiments after stable ALDOA overexpression and knockdown in DU145 and PC3 cell lines. An aldolase A inhibitor was used to determine the effects of inhibition of ALDOA on PCa cell proliferation.

resultsHigher expression of ALDOA was positively correlated with the incidence of postoperative metastasis and biochemical recurrence (BCR) and may predict poor prognosis in PCa patients. In vivo experiments demonstrated that overexpression of ALDOA could significantly promote cell proliferation, prolong the cell cycle, and significantly reduce the apoptosis rate of PCa cells. Knockdown of expression of ALDOA could inhibit the proliferation and shorten the cell cycle of PCa cells significantly, with no significant effects on cell apoptosis (

conclusionOur study revealed that ALDOA played an important role in the progression of PCa. The MYPT1-ALDOA signaling axis may be a new target for the clinical treatment of PCa patients given its negative regulatory relationship. Our study suggests that Aldolase A inhibitors may represent a novel approach to inhibit the growth of PCa.
