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: Although increasing evidence supports a vital role for assembly factor for spindle microtubules (ASPM) and trophinin-associated protein (TROAP) in the tumorigenesis of some cancers, no systematic pancancer analyses of ASPM and TROAP have been performed. Thus, we aimed to investigate the potential functions of ASPM and TROAP across 31 cancer types. Methods: Based on datasets from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), Human Protein Atlas (HPA), Gene-Cloud of Biotechnology Information (GCBI) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), we employed an array of bioinformatics methods to explore the potential oncogenic roles of ASPM and TROAP. Results: ASPM and TROAP, which were highly expressed in most cancers and presented a strict positive correlation, led to a decreased life expectancy among cancer patients. ASPM and TROAP both regulated cell replication in the S&G2 phase of the cell cycle. Through a protein-protein interaction network (PPI) analysis of ASPM and TROAP, we found that cell division cycle 20 (CDC20) was regulated by TROAP and functioned upstream of ASPM. Thus, TROAP can regulate the role of ASPM in cancers. Conclusions: The ASPM and TROAP have a significant positive correlation and similar expression profiles, and promote tumor malignancy and development in the S&G2 phase of the cell cycle. Since ASPM is one of the downstream targets of TROAP, TROAP and especially ASPM may be potential tumor makers and promising targets for therapeutic strategy.
