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

Unlike many solid tumors, epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) has a clear metastatic predilection to the adipocyte-rich niche, especially the omentum. However, the underlying mechanism driving this process remains incomplete. Here we show that SphK1 is over-expressed in omental metastases compared with ovarian primary tumors in EOC patients. In vitro, inhibition of SphK1 suppressed the metastatic ability of EOC induced by adipocytes. In vivo, blockage of SphK1 could attenuate the omental metastasis of EOC. Importantly, SphK1 modulates adipocyte-induced E/N-cadherin switch through Twist1, a key process in EOC metastasis. Our study reveals a previously unrecognized role of SphK1 in modulating the metastatic tropism of EOC to the adipocyte-rich niche, suggesting a new target for EOC therapy.
