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

Ameloblastoma (AM) is a prominent benign odontogenic tumor characterized by aggressiveness, likely originating from tooth-generating tissue or the dental follicle (DF). However, proteomic distinctions between AM and DF remain unclear. In the present study, the aim was to identify the distinction between AM and DF in terms of their proteome and to determine the associated hub genes. Shotgun proteomics was used to compare the proteomes of seven fresh-frozen AM tissues and five DF tissues. Differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were quantified and subsequently analyzed through Gene Ontology-based functional analysis, protein-protein interaction (PPI) analysis and hub gene identification. Among 7,550 DEPs, 520 and 216 were exclusive to AM and DF, respectively. Significant biological pathways included histone H2A monoubiquitination and actin filament-based movement in AM, as well as pro-B cell differentiation in DF. According to PPI analysis, the top-ranked upregulated hub genes were ubiquitin C (UBC), breast cancer gene 1 (BRCA1), lymphocyte cell-specific protein-tyrosine kinase (LCK), Janus kinase 1 and ATR serine/threonine kinase, whereas the top-ranked downregulated hub genes were UBC, protein kinase, DNA-activated, catalytic subunit (PRKDC), V-Myc avian myelocytomatosis viral oncogene homolog (MYC), tumor protein P53 and P21 (RAC1) activated kinase 1. When combining upregulated and downregulated genes, UBC exhibited the highest degree and betweenness values, followed by MYC, BRCA1, PRKDC, embryonic lethal, abnormal vision, Drosophila, homolog-like 1, myosin heavy chain 9, amyloid beta precursor protein, telomeric repeat binding factor 2, LCK and filamin A. In summary, these findings contributed to the knowledge on AM protein profiles, potentially aiding future research regarding AM etiopathogenesis and leading to AM prevention and treatment.
