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 carcinoma is the fourth most prevalent cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide because of dismal prognosis and few therapeutic options. Accumulated studies have indicated that targeting lysyl oxidase (LOX) family members may serve as an anticancer strategy. Nevertheless, the specific mechanisms of LOX in stomach carcinoma are still unclear. In this study, we demonstrated that LOX is significantly different in 13 types of cancers and may act as a potential therapeutic target, especially in stomach carcinoma. Moreover, overexpression of LOX in gastric carcinoma was validated by multiple databases and contributed to the poor overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and post-progression survival (PPS) of stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) patients. Next, based on the ceRNA hypothesis, the HIF1A-AS2/RP11-366L20.2-miR-29c axis was characterized as the upstream regulatory mechanism of LOX gene overexpression in gastric cancer by combining correlation analysis, expression analysis, and survival analysis. Finally, we illustrated that LOX gene overexpression leads to dismal prognosis of gastric cancer, perhaps through promoting M2 macrophage polarization and tumor immune escape and enhancing drug resistance of tumor cells to chemotherapeutic drugs. Our research demonstrate that LOX may be potentially applied as a novel prognostic marker and targeting inhibition of LOX holds promise as a treatment strategy for gastric cancer.
