PTPN18 Stimulates the Development of Ovarian Cancer by Activating the PI3K/AKT Signaling.
Article in Evidence-based complementary and alternative medicine : eCAM, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Objective: To illustrate the functions of protein tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor type 18 (PTPN18) in the progression of ovarian cancer and the potential molecular mechanism. Methods: Differential PTPN18 expression in ovarian cancer samples was determined. Following PTPN18 knockdown, changes in proliferation and migration in ovarian cancer cells were detected. Nude mice with ovarian cancer were used to uncover the effects of PTPN18 on ovarian cancer growth in vivo. Results: PTPN18 was significantly upregulated in ovarian cancer samples and linked to pathological staging and metastasis rate. PTPN18 displayed prognostic and diagnostic potentials in ovarian cancer. Knockdown of PTPN18 and treatment of the PI3K inhibitor could inhibit proliferative and migratory abilities in ovarian cancer cells. Moreover, PTPN18 was capable of inactivating PI3K/AKT signaling. In vivo knockdown of PTPN18 suppressed ovarian cancer growth in nude mice. Conclusions: PTPN18 is upregulated in ovarian cancer, which stimulates the malignant development by activating PI3K/AKT signaling. The PTPN18 level is also associated with pathological staging and metastasis in ovarian cancer patients, which may be utilized as a hallmark predicting the malignant level.
