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

The tumor-suppressor role of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) growth arrest-specific transcript 5 (GAS5) has been proven in various types of cancer. However, the specific function of GAS5 in tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) of endometrial cancer (EC) is elusive. Quantitative PCR results showed that GAS5 expression decreased in EC tissues and primary TAMs from EC tumors. Tumor-associated macrophage infiltration was significantly positively associated with the developmental stage of EC. Direct coculture of GAS5-overexpressing TAMs and EC cells showed that GAS5 enhanced phagocytosis, antigen presentation, and activation of cytotoxic T cells, and repressed "Don't eat me" signals between TAMs and EC cells. Tumor formation in immunodeficient mice showed that GAS5-overexpressing macrophages could repress EC formation in vivo. GAS5 promoted M1 polarization by activating the microRNA-21- phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN)-AKT signaling pathway and directly repressing the nuclear accumulation and phosphorylation of oncogenic yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) in TAMs. GAS5 inhibited the development of EC from both innate and adaptive immunity by transforming TAMs from a protumor to an antitumor phenotype. These antitumor effects of GAS5 on TAMs were mediated by the activation of the miR-21-PTEN-AKT pathway and inhibition of YAP1.
