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

RRP12 (ribosomal RNA processing 12 homolog) is a nucleolar protein involved in the maturation and transport of eukaryotic ribosomal subunits and is a type of RNA binding protein. In recent years, considerable research has indicated that RRP12 is associated with the occurrence and development of multiple cancers. However, there is no research on RRP12 in hepatocellular carcinoma. Herein, we aimed to explore the role and significance of RRP12 in hepatocellular carcinoma.We used the TIMER and GEPIA databases to perform pan-cancer analyses of RRP12. The impact of RRP12 on the prognosis was analyzed through the GEPIA database. The relationship between RRP12 and immune cell infiltration was investigated by TIMER and GEPIA databases. Moreover, the expression of RRP12 in various liver cancer cells was evaluated by Western Blot to determine the cell line for the next experiment. Scratch test, Transwell test, and Edu tests were applied to validate the effects of RRP12 on the function of liver cancer cells. And the data were statistically analyzed.Pan-cancer analysis found that RPP12 was significantly upregulated in many cancers. Moreover, the prognostic analysis revealed that the difference in the expression of RRP12 has statistical significance for the overall survival rate and disease-free survival rate of liver cancer patients. In order to analyze the correlation between the expression level of RRP12 and clinical parameters, it was found that there was a significant negative correlation with tumor stage, tumor grade and tumor size. Univariate and multivariate analysis showed that RRP12 could be used as an independent prognostic factor for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. Cellular experiments have proved that knocking down RRP12 can inhibit the proliferation, invasion, and metastasis of liver cancer cells.Therefore, RRP12 significantly affects the occurrence and development of HCC. Hence, RRP12 can become a potential target and prognostic biomarker for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma.
