Clinical Evaluation of FOXO1 as a Tumor Suppressor in Prostate Cancer.

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.
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
objectiveProstate cancer (PCa) is considered the most serious cancer in the world. Nevertheless, the accuracy of current biomarkers, such as pathological staging, Gleason's score, and serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels, is limited. FOXO1 is a key downstream effector of PTEN and a tumor suppressor in PCA, which has been reported extensively. However, the clinical relevance of FOXO1 in PCa remains unclear.
methodsIn this study, we first detected its expression in four public databases to explore the clinical role of FOXO1. Verification of the knockdown effect of FOXO1 siRNA was performed by real-time PCR analysis. Changes in cell viability were assessed using cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assays. In addition, we verified the effect of FOXO1 on the PCa cell cycle using a cell cycle assay.
resultsHerein, we found that FOXO1 was significantly downregulated in PCa tissues and was significantly associated with Gleason's score, age, biochemical recurrence (BCR), and lymph node (LN) status, while FOXO1 expression was independent of pathological staging and preoperative PSA levels. The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that PCA patients with high FOXO1 expression were less likely to develop BCR compared with patients with low FOXO1 expression. In terms of function, FOXO1 inhibition significantly promoted the proliferation and cell cycle progression of PCa cells.
conclusionsIn summary, our study suggests that FOXO1 may be one of the prognostic factors that describe the risk of PCa for BCR. These results suggest that FOXO1 may be a therapeutic target for PCa.
