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

backgroundThe role of microsomal glutathione S-transferase 1 (MGST1) underlying gastric cancer (GC) is unclear. The purpose of this research was to study the expression level and biological functions of MGST1 in GC cells.

methodsExpression of MGST1 was detected by RT-qPCR, Western blot (WB), and immunohistochemical staining. MGST1 was knockdown and overexpression by short hairpin RNA lentivirus in GC cells. Cell proliferation was evaluated by the CCK-8 assay and EDU assay. The cell cycle was detected by flow cytometry. The TOP-Flash reporter assay was used to examine the activity of T-cell factor/lymphoid enhancer factor transcription based on β-catenin. WB was performed to assess the protein levels involved in the cell signaling pathway and ferroptosis. The MAD assay and C11 BODIPY 581/591 lipid peroxidation probe assay were performed to determine the reactive oxygen species lipid level in GC cells.

resultsMGST1 expression was upregulated in GC and it was correlated with poor overall survival of GC patients. MGST1 knockdown significantly inhibited GC cell proliferation and cell cycle by regulating the AKT/GSK-3β/β-catenin axis. In addition, we found that MGST1 inhibits ferroptosis in GC cells.

conclusionThese findings suggested that MGST1 played a confirmed role in promoting GC development and serving as a possible independent prognostic factor for GC.
