Role of ROR2 in promoting gastric cancer metastasis by enhancing c-JUN-mediated MMP3 transcription.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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.
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: Receptor tyrosine kinase-like orphan receptor 2 (ROR2) is a transmembrane receptor that has a complex role in cancer, acting either to promote or inhibit tumor progression in different tumor types. The effect of ROR2 on gastric cancer is unclear. Methods: Immunohistochemistry was used to investigate the role of ROR2 in the prognosis of gastric cancer. Transwell assay and a BALB/c nude mice pulmonary metastasis model were used to ascertain the role of ROR2 in promoting metastasis Results: ROR2 was found to be upregulated in gastric cancer tissues, which was correlated with poor disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) in gastric cancer patients. Moreover, ROR2 promoted gastric cancer cell migratory and invasive behaviors Conclusions: We report for the first time that ROR2 is upregulated in gastric cancer, promotes metastasis, and is associated with poor prognosis in gastric cancer. The findings suggest that ROR2 may be a promising prognostic predictor for gastric cancer. Silencing the JNK1/2-c-JUN pathway, thereby inhibiting MMP3 expression, may serve as a promising strategy to inhibit gastric cancer progression.
