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

YTH domain-containing 2 (YTHDC2) is known to be an important regulator for RNA metabolism. Here, we show that YTHDC2 is essential for breast cancer tumorigenesis and metastasis. We examined YTHDC2 expression levels by immunohistochemistry in human breast tumor tissues from 99 patients and found a significantly positive correlation between the YTHDC2 expression level and the tumor stage. We established YTHDC2-knocked-down cell lines using four breast cancer cell lines with different subtypes. Knockdown of YTHDC2 attenuated the sphere-forming and the metastatic ability of breast cancer cells. Although stemness and EMT markers, such as SOX2, c-MYC, and NANOG, were downregulated in several YTHDC2-knocked-down breast cancer cells, a common target gene of YTHDC2 in breast cancer cells was not identified. These findings suggest that while YTHDC2 is involved in malignant progression of breast cancers, the mechanism by which YTHDC2 regulates those phenotypes is different between subtypes of breast cancers.
