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 role of methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3), which participates in catalyzing N-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA modification, in gastric cancer (GC) is unclear. Here, we found that METTL3 was overexpressed in human GC. Functionally, we verified that METTL3 promoted tumor cell proliferation and angiogenesis through a series of phenotypic experiments. Subsequently, ADAMTS9 was identified as the downstream effector of METTL3 in GC, which could be degraded by the YTHDF2-dependent pathway. Finally, the data suggested that METTL3 might facilitate GC progression through the ADAMTS9-mediated PI3K/AKT pathway. Our study unveiled the fundamental mechanisms of METTL3 in GC progression. The clinical value of METTL3 in GC deserves further exploration.
