Role of protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type M in epithelial ovarian cancer progression.
Article in Journal of ovarian research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundEpithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is often diagnosed at advanced stages with low survival rates. Protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type M (PTPRM) is involved in cancer development and progression; however, its role in EOC remains unclear. In this study,we aimed to detect PTPRM expression in ovarian epithelial tumors, analyze its relationship with the clinicopathological features and survival prognosis of patients with EOC, and provide a theoretical basis for new targets for EOC treatment. Fifty-seven patients with EOC treated at our hospital between January 2012-January 2014 were included; along with 18 borderline and 30 benign epithelial ovarian tumors and 15 normal ovarian and uterine tube tissue samples from patients surgically treated at our hospital during the same period. PTPRM expression was immunohistochemically detected, and we analyzed its relationship with clinicopathological features and prognosis. Associations between PTPRM expression and survival prognosis of patients with EOC were analyzed using the Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA) and Kaplan-Meier Plotter databases.
resultsPTPRM had the highest expression rates in normal ovarian and uterine tube tissues, followed by benign and borderline epithelial ovarian tumors; the lowest positive expression rate was observed in EOC tumors. PTPRM expression differed significantly among groups (P < 0.05). The positive PTPRM expression rate significantly decreased with age, progressing clinical stage, and tumor recurrence, and the larger the mass diameter, the higher the positive PTPRM expression rate. PTPRM expression was significantly lower in ovarian cancer compared with that in normal tissues in the GEPIA database (P < 0.05). The overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival(DFS) rates were higher in the PTPRM high-expression group, with statistically significant (P < 0.05) and insignificant (P > 0.05) differences, respectively. The OS rate of the high-expression group compared with the low-expression group in the Kaplan-Meier Plotter database was higher, although without statistical significance (P > 0.05), and progression-free survival(PFS) was higher with statistical significance (P < 0.05).
conclusionPTPRM expression was low in patients with EOC, and the PTPRM positive-expression rate significantly decreased with progressing stages of EOC and tumor recurrence, suggesting that PTPRM acts as a tumor suppressor in EOC progression. Negative PTPRM expression may predict poor clinical outcomes in patients with EOC.
