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

backgroundTransmembrane emp24 domain-containing protein 9 (TMED9) belongs to the TMED/p24 family that transports, modifies, and packs proteins and lipids into vesicles for delivery to specific locations and is important in innate immune signaling via the endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi cargo pathway. TMED9 has been implicated in various cancer types; however, its role in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is unclear. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the role and clinical significance of TMED9 in EOC. MATERIALS AND

methodsmRNA and protein levels of TMED9 and their associations with clinicopathological features in EOCs were evaluated using RNA-sequencing and immunohistochemistry data. Functional studies assessing the tumorigenic role of TMED9 in EOC cell lines were also performed.

resultsThe mRNA expression of TMED9 was up-regulated in EOC compared to that in normal ovarian epithelium. TMED9 protein expression increased in progression from normal ovarian epithelium to EOC (p<0.001). Moreover, high expression of TMED9 was associated with advanced stage, serous cell type and poor histological grade in EOC and demonstrated independent prognostic significance for both disease-free and overall survival. Further functional studies showed that TMED9 knockdown reduced migration, invasion, cell proliferation, and colony formation of EOC cells.

conclusionOverall, our results support the use of TMED9 as a valuable prognostic biomarker and provide evidence for targeting of TMED9 as a novel strategy for EOC treatment.
