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

backgroundAmphoterin-induced gene and open reading frame 2 (AMIGO2) have been reported to be related to the prognosis of colorectal, gastric, and cervical cancer. However, their association with ovarian cancer remains unclear. This study aimed to elucidate the role of AMIGO2 in ovarian cancer.

methodsAMIGO2 expression was evaluated using immunohistochemistry in patients with ovarian serous carcinoma. We validated in vitro studies using four serous ovarian cancer cell lines and in vivo studies using a murine model.

resultsThe AMIGO2-high group had significantly shorter progression-free survival (PFS) than the AMIGO2-low group. The predictive index of the AMIGO2-high group was considerably higher than that of the AMIGO2-low group. The rate of complete cytoreductive surgery was lower in the AMIGO2-high group than in the AMIGO2-low group. Moreover, in vitro studies revealed that four serous ovarian cancer cell lines exhibited AMIGO2 expression and adhesion to mesothelial cells. Adhesion to mesothelial cells was attenuated by AMIGO2 knockdown in SKOV3 and SHIN3 cells. Furthermore, AMIGO2 downregulation in SKOV3 cells significantly suppressed peritoneal dissemination in the murine model.

conclusionThese results suggest that high AMIGO2 expression in serous ovarian carcinoma cells contributes to a poor prognosis by promoting peritoneal metastasis through enhanced cell adhesion to mesothelial cells.
