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

Introduction: PSMD2 plays an oncogenic role in multiple human malignancies, while it is still unclear that the potential roles and underlying mechanisms of PSMD2 in BCa. Methods: The RNA-seq from TCGA and GTEx database was utilized to preliminarily analyze the expression of PSMD2 in BCa tissues, qRT-PCR was adopted to verify the PSMD2 expression in BCa cell lines. Cox regression analyses were applied to assess the prognostic values of PSMD2 in BCa. GSEA analysis was used to explore the underlying mechanisms of PSMD2. Results: The results revealed that in comparison with normal bladder tissues and cell line, PSMD2 was found to be significantly elevated in BCa tissues and cell lines. Elevated expression of PSMD2 can independently predict unfavorable OS for BCa patients. The PSMD2 expression and other clinicopathologic factors were combined to develop a nomogram, which can help to predict OS for BCa patients. GSEA analyses revealed that PSMD2 is correlated with the cell cycle, antigen processing and presentation, JAK-STAT signaling pathway, Toll like receptor signaling pathway, P53 and MAPK signaling pathway. Knockdown of PSMD2 could remarkably inhibit the wound healing and colony formation efficiency of BCa cells. xCell analysis revealed that overexpressed PSMD2 is positively related to the Th2 cells infiltrates and expression levels of immune escape markers, and negatively associated with the infiltrating levels of NK T cell and CD8+ T cell. Discussion: In conclusion, overexpressed PSMD2 is tightly linked to the immune infiltrates and promotes the progression of BCa.
