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 present study aimed to investigate the potential molecular mechanisms by which galectin‑1 (Gal‑1) and glucose‑regulated protein 78 (GRP78) influence the development of malignant gastric cancer (GC). Immunohistochemistry and western blotting were used to map the expression and location of the Gal‑1 gene in the 80 paraffin‑embedded GC samples, 16 fresh samples and surrounding tissues. Gal‑1 was overexpressed and knocked down using lentiviral vectors in the human GC cell lines HGC‑27 and AGS. Through the use of the Cell Counting Kit‑8 assay, clone formation assay, wound healing assay, invasion assay and tumor xenograft, the possible biological roles of Gal‑1 were further evaluated. The downstream interacting proteins were predicted by the BioGRID database, and GRP78 was chosen for further investigation. Immunofluorescence labeling and Co‑IP were used to confirm the connection. The statistical tests utilized were the two‑tailed paired Student's t‑test, χ
