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 Aims: Metastasis is a major factor associated with high recurrence and mortality in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients while the underlying mechanism of metastasis remains elusive. In our study, procollagen-lysine, 2-oxoglutarate 5-dioxygenase 2 (PLOD2) was shown to be involved in the process of metastasis in HCC. Methods: The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and HCC tissue microarrays were used to evaluate the expression of genes. Results: The expression of PLOD2 in HCC tissues was higher than that in adjacent tissues, and increased PLOD2 expression was often found in advanced tumors and was correlated with poor prognosis in HCC patients. Conclusions: High expression of PLOD2 was regulated by IRF5, which was correlated with the poor survival of HCC patients. PLOD2 enhanced HCC metastasis via BIRC3, suggesting that PLOD2 might be a valuable prognostic biomarker for HCC treatment.
