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 emergence of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) following androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is associated with increased malignancy and limited treatment options. This study aims to investigate potential connections between immune cell infiltration and inflammatory cytokines with the YAP1/AR/PSA axis by exploring their interactions with autophagy. Our research reveals heightened levels of Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) expression in CRPC tissues compared with tissues from androgen-dependent prostate cancer (ADPC) and benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH). Additionally, a correlation was observed between YAP1 and PSA expressions in CRPC tissues, suggesting that YAP1 may exert a regulatory influence on PSA expression within CRPC. Enhanced YAP1 expression in C4-2 cells resulted in the upregulation of androgen receptor (AR) nuclear translocation and intracellular prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels. Conversely, the suppression of YAP1 led to a decrease in PSA expression, suggesting that YAP1 may positively regulate the PSA in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) by facilitating AR nuclear import. The modulation of the autophagy activity exerts a significant impact on the expression levels of YAP1, the AR, and the PSA. Moreover, recent advancements in immunity and inflammation studies present promising avenues for potential therapies targeting prostate cancer (PC).
