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

Worldwide, the incidence rate of gastric cancer ranks fifth, and the mortality rate of gastric cancer ranks third among all malignant tumors. However, the pathogenesis of gastric cancer remains poorly understood. In this study, we demonstrated that the expression level of NELFE is higher in human gastric cancer tissues than in adjacent nontumor tissues. A high level of NELFE is associated with worse postoperative overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS) rates in patients with gastric cancer. Moreover, the expression of NELFE is correlated with high tumor grade and lymph node metastasis in gastric cancer patients. Knockdown of NELFE dramatically inhibits the cell proliferation and metastasis of gastric cancer xenografts
