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

purposeHelicobacter pylori (H. pylori) has unique biochemical traits and pathogenic mechanisms, which make it a substantial cause of gastrointestinal cancers. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have concurrently been identified as an important participating factor in the pathophysiology of several different cancers. However, the underlying processes and putative interactions between H. pylori and circRNAs have received very little attention. To address this issue, we explored the interaction between H. pylori and circRNAs to investigate how they might jointly contribute to the occurrence and development of gastric cancer.

methodsChanges in circPGD expression in H. pylori were detected using qRT-PCR. Cell proliferation and migration changes were assayed by colony formation, the CCK-8 assay and the transwell assay. Apoptosis was measured by flow cytometry. Western blot was conducted to detect changes in cell migration, apoptosis, proliferation and inflammation-associated proteins. QRT-PCR was used to measure changes in circPGD and inflammation-associated factors.

resultsWe found that H. pylori induced increased circPGD expression in infected human cells and facilitated gastric cancer progression in three ways by promoting cell proliferation and migration, enhancing the inflammatory response, and inhibiting apoptosis.

conclusionsCircPGD appears to play a role in H. pylori-related gastric cancer and may thus be a viable, novel target for therapeutic intervention.
