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

The G protein-coupled receptor, class C, group 5, member A (GPRC5A) plays a key role in various diseases, but its effect on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and the potential underlying mechanisms remains unclear. In the present study, we explored the effect of GPRC5A on the progression of HCC and further explored its mechanism of action. The results revealed that the expression of GPRC5A was lower in HCC tissues and cells. Overexpression of GPRC5A suppressed the proliferation and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of HCC cells. In addition, overexpression of GPRC5A induced oxidative stress and apoptosis. Further study showed that overexpression of GPRC5A inhibited the expression of STAT3/Socs3/c-MYC related-protein and the NLRP3 inflammasome. Moreover, the STAT3/Socs3/c-MYC and NLRP3 inflammasome was involved in the effect of GPRC5A on HCC cells. These results suggest that GPRC5A suppresses proliferation and EMT, induces oxidative stress and leads to apoptosis of HCC cells, potentially by regulating STAT3/Socs3/c-MYC signalling and the NLRP3 inflammasome. These findings suggest that GPRC5A has an anti-tumor effect in the formation of HCC, and the molecular therapy of GPRC5A provides a theoretical basis for treating HCC.
