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

In the past few decades, advances in the outcomes of patients suffering from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) have lagged behind these gained in the treatment of many other malignancies. Although the pivotal role of the SUMO pathway in PDAC has been illustrated, the underlying molecule drivers have yet to be fully elucidated. In the present study, we identified SENP3 as a potential suppressor of PDAC progression through an in vivo metastatic model. Further studies revealed that SENP3 inhibited PDAC invasion in a SUMO system dependent fashion. Mechanistically, SENP3 interacted with DKC1 and, as such, catalyzed the deSUMOylation of DKC1, which accepted SUMO3 modifiers at three lysine residues. SENP3-mediated deSUMOylation caused DKC1 instability and disruption of the interaction between snoRNP proteins, which contributed to the impaired migration ability of PDAC. Indeed, overexpression of DKC1 abated the anti-metastasis effect of SENP3, and DKC1 was elevated in PDAC specimens and associated with a poor prognosis in PDAC patients. Collectively, our findings shed light on the essential role of SENP3/DKC1 axis in the progression of PDAC.
