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

Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the main causes of cancer-associated morbidity and mortality worldwide. The present study aimed to investigate the role of the gene encoding formin homology 2 domain containing 1 (FHOD1) protein in GC development. Data from The Cancer Genome Atlas were firstly analyzed, and immunohistochemistry was conducted on GC tissues. The results demonstrated that FHOD1 expression in GC tissues was significantly increased compared with adjacent non-tumor tissues. Furthermore, the expression level of FHOD1 was negatively associated with the overall survival of patients with GC. For the functional studies, lentivirus-mediated short hairpin RNA against FHOD1 and FHOD1-overexpression vectors were constructed to knockdown and overexpress the expression level of FHOD1 in human GC cell lines, respectively. The results indicated that FHOD1 knockdown inhibited the proliferation, colony formation and migratory and invasive abilities of GC cells. Conversely, overexpression of FHOD1 in GC cells promoted soft-agar colony formation and migratory and invasive abilities. In addition, it was demonstrated that genes of which expression levels were correlated with FHOD1 were enriched in the Gene Ontology term of 'extracellular matrix (ECM) structural constituent', suggesting that FHOD1 may serve an important role in the regulation of ECM. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that FHOD1 may exert an oncogenic role in cultured GC cells and be inversely associated with the overall survival of patients with GC.
