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: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARG) plays some roles in preventing liver disease progression to hepatocellular carcinoma. However, there is limited information about the function of PPARG of in hepatocellular carcinoma. This study aimed to determine the significance of PPARG in immunological response and as a biomarker for hepatocellular carcinoma survival. Methods: We investigated the expression, prognosis, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes/Gene Ontology biological process enrichment, and immune significance of PPARG using data from three databases-The Cancer Genome Atlas, International Cancer Genome Consortium, and Gene Expression Omnibus-through bioinformatics analysis as well as experimental verification in proliferation function of PPARG in HepG2 cell. Results: High PPARG expression in hepatocellular carcinoma tissues positively correlated with Conclusions: PPARG is upregulated in hepatocellular carcinoma and it correlates with a worse prognosis. Moreover, PPARG may play an important role in the cell proliferation, complement system and immune cell infiltration in hepatocellular carcinoma.
