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 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs9679162 located on GALNT14 gene predicts therapeutic outcomes in patients with intermediate and advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but the molecular mechanism remains unclear. Here, the associations between SNP genotypes, GALNT14 expression, and downstream molecular events were determined. A higher GALNT14 cancerous/noncancerous ratio was associated with the rs9679162-GG genotype, leading to an unfavorable postoperative prognosis. A novel exon-6-skipped GALNT14 mRNA variant was identified in patients carrying the rs9679162-TT genotype, which was associated with lower GALNT14 expression and favorable prognosis. Cell-based experiments showed that elevated levels of GALNT14 promoted HCC growth, migration, and resistance to anticancer drugs. Using a comparative lectin-capture glycoproteomic approach, PHB2 was identified as a substrate for GALNT14-mediated O-glycosylation. Site-directed mutagenesis experiments revealed that serine-161 (Ser161) was the O-glycosylation site. Further analysis showed that O-glycosylation of PHB2-Ser161 was required for the GALNT14-mediated growth-promoting phenotype. O-glycosylation of PHB2 was positively correlated with GALNT14 expression in HCC, resulting in increased interaction between PHB2 and IGFBP6, which in turn led to the activation of IGF1R-mediated signaling. In conclusion, the GALNT14-rs9679162 genotype was associated with differential expression levels of GALNT14 and the generation of a novel exon-6-skipped GALNT14 mRNA variant, which was associated with a favorable prognosis in HCC. The GALNT14/PHB2/IGF1R cascade modulated the growth, migration, and anticancer drug resistance of HCC cells, thereby opening the possibility of identifying new therapeutic targets against HCC.
