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

introductionThe incidence of prostate cancer remains high worldwide, while exploring new therapeutic targets for prostate cancer is essential. Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins have been proved to regulate tumorigeneses in various cancers. This study aimed to explore the role of HNRNPC in prostate cancer progression.

methodsHNRNPC expression and its correlation with clinical features and immune infiltration were analyzed by bioinformatics analysis. The effects of HNRNPC on prostate cell proliferation, migration, and invasion were accessed by EdU, colony formation, transwell, and wound-healing assays.

resultsThe expression level of HNRNPC was significantly increased in prostate cancer tissues and was correlated with the T stage, N stage, Gleason score, PSA level, residual tumors, overall survival, disease-specific survival, and progression-free interval of prostate cancer patients. Silencing HNRNPC inhibited the proliferation and metastasis of prostate cancer cells. The expression of HNRNPC was negatively correlated with the infiltration level of most immune cells in prostate cancer. Mechanistically, HNRNPC may function through regulating gene expression at the posttranscriptional level.

conclusionHNRNPC could be a potential marker for the treatment and prognosis prediction of prostate cancer.
