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

backgroundGastric cancer (GC) is a prevalent type of malignant gastrointestinal tumor. Many studies have shown that CENPE acts as an oncogene in some cancers. However, its expression level and clinical value in GC are not clear.

methodsObtaining clinical data information on gastric adenocarcinoma from TCGA and GEO databases. The gene expression profiling interaction analysis (GEPIA) was used to evaluate the relationship between prognosis and CENPE expression in gastric cancer patients. Utilizing the UALCAN platform, the correlation between CENPE expression and clinical parameters was examined. Functions and signaling pathways of CENPE were analyzed using the Gene Ontology (GO), the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA). The association between immunological infiltrating cells and CENPE expression was examined using TIMER2.0. Validation was performed by real-time quantitative PCR (qPT-PCR) and immunohistochemical analysis.

resultsAccording to the analysis of the GEPIA database, the expression of CENPE is increased in gastric cancer tissues compared to normal tissues. It was also found to have an important relationship with the prognosis of the patient (p<0.05). The prognosis was worse and overall survival was lower in individuals with increased expression of CENPE. In line with the findings of the GEPIA, real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (qPT-PCR) confirmed that CENPE was overexpressed in gastric cancer cells. Furthermore, It was discovered that H. pylori infection status and tumor grade were related to CENPE expression. Enrichment analysis revealed that CENPE expression was linked to multiple biological functions and tumor-associated pathways. CENPE expression also correlated with immune-infiltrating cells in the gastric cancer microenvironment and was positively connected to NK cells and mast cells. According to immunohistochemical examination, paracancerous tissues had minimal expression of CENPE, but gastric cancer showed significant expression of the protein.

conclusionsAccording to our findings, CENPE is substantially expressed in GC and may perhaps contribute to its growth. CENPE might be a target for gastric cancer therapy and a predictor of a bad prognosis.
