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

Background and Objective: Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), a liver cancer of bile duct epithelial cells, is a severe health issue in northeastern Thailand. The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a crucial process in the development of CCA. To comprehend oncogenic EMT in CCA, several newly found EMT factors are being explored in these underlying pathways. This narrative review explained the latest Methods: We evaluated the PubMed database for relevant articles that fulfilled our criteria for investigating the molecular pathways of the novel EMT markers involved in oncogenic EMT and how they contribute to CCA development, including cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, migration, and chemoresistance. Key Content and Findings: We discuss the potential of these new EMT markers as diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic indicators for CCA and describe their underlying mechanisms in the development of the disease. The discovery of several oncogenic EMT proteins and their key signaling pathways and downstream targets will also broaden novel paths of investigation into the diagnosis and targeted treatment of CCA. Conclusions: The EMT-related proteins that were found are good sources of knowledge and interesting information for future research. The possible ways to treat CCA that could be tested in clinical trials were also discussed.
