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

purposeCollectin subfamily member 12, a transmembrane scavenger receptor C-type lectin, is aberrantly expressed in various cancers. However, its physiological role in gastric cancer remains somewhat unclear. This study aimed to investigate the Collectin subfamily member 12 expression pattern in human gastric cancer and its role in gastric cancer progression.

methodsThe Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis. The univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to identify independent predictors for progression-free survival and overall survival. The effects of Collectin subfamily member 12 on gastric cancer cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis were detected through the cell counting kit-8 assay, colony formation assay, wound healing assay, transwell assay, and flow cytometry analysis, respectively. Additionally, the correlation between Collectin subfamily member 12 expression and immune cell infiltration was analyzed through bioinformatics.

resultsCollectin subfamily member 12 was highly expressed in advanced gastric cancer (T3-T4, pathologic stage III-IV). High Collectin subfamily member 12 expression was correlated with a worse progression-free survival and overall survival in the gastric cancer patients.

conclusionsCollectin subfamily member 12 was identified as a novel predictive marker and target for the clinical treatment of gastric cancer.
