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

Late endosomal/lysosomal adaptor, MAPK and mTOR, or LAMTOR, is a scaffold protein complex that senses nutrients and integrates growth factor signaling. The role of LAMTOR4 in tumorigenesis is still unknown. However, there is a considerable possibility that LAMTOR4 is directly involved in tumor cell proliferation and metastasis. In the current study, we investigated the protein expression of LAMTOR4 in a cohort of 314 men who were undergoing transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) consisting of incidental, advanced and castration-resistant cases. We also correlated the data with ERG and PTEN genomic status and clinicopathological features including Gleason score and patients' outcome. Additionally, we performed in vitro experiments utilizing knockdown of LAMTOR4 in prostate cell lines, and we performed mRNA expression assessment using TCGA prostate adenocarcinoma (TCGA-PRAD) to explore the potential differentially expressed genes and pathways associated with LAMTOR4 overexpression in PCa patients. Our data indicate that high LAMTOR4 protein expression was significantly associated with poor overall survival (OS) (HR: 1.44, CI: 1.01-2.05,
