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

Background: Cell division cycle-associated protein 2 (CDCA2) is a member of cell cycle-related proteins. CDCA2 plays a role in the regulation of protein phosphatase 1(PP1) γ-dependent DNA damage response (DDR) and H3 phosphorylation. CDCA2 promotes the tumorigenesis and development of several types of cancers by promoting the proliferation of tumor cells. However, the relationship between CDCA2 expression and the clinicopathological characteristics of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is unknown. Methods: Gene expression information and clinical data were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. The expression of CDCA2 and its correlation to clinical characteristics in HCC were analyzed. The expression level of CDCA2 was validated in HCC cell lines. The relationship between CDCA2 expression and the survival of patients with HCC was analyzed by using Kaplan-Meier method. The prognostic value of CDCA2 in HCC was estimated by Cox regression analysis. The expression difference of CDCA2 between HCC and normal tissues and its correlation to survival were verified in independent datasets. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was used to screen the CDCA2-related signaling pathways. Results: Cell division cycle-associated protein 2 expression was upregulated in HCC tissues ( Conclusion: Cell division cycle-associated protein 2 may serve as an independent biomarker for poor prognosis in HCC and increased CDCA2 expression was associated with upregulation of immune checkpoints.
