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

Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies worldwide and has been identified as the third leading cause of cancer-related mortality. Flotillin-1 is a lipid raft-associated scaffolding protein and plays an important role in the progression and development of several malignant carcinomas. Flotillin-1 is involved in epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process of several solid tumors to promote metastasis. However, the detailed characteristics and mechanisms of Flotillin-1 in gastric cancer have rarely been investigated. In this study, we found Flotillin-1 upregulated in gastric cancer, and the high expression of Flotillin-1 correlated with a worse prognosis. The migration and invasion ability of gastric cancer cells was upregulated by overexpressing Flotillin-1. Knockdown of Flotillin-1 inhibits gastric cancer cells metastasis. Flotillin-1 is a key regulator of EMT process and promotes gastric cancer cells metastasis through inducing EMT. Flotillin-1 may interact with a deubiquitinase to inhibit the ubiquitination of Snail in gastric cancer cells to promote EMT process. Our study provides a rationale and potential target for the treatment of gastric cancer.
