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

Background: CKLF-like MARVEL transmembrane domain-containing 4 (CMTM4) is involved in immune regulation and tumor progression; however, its role in gastric cancer (GC) remains unclear. This study explored the role and mechanism of CMTM4 in GC. Methods: Immunohistochemistry was used to analyze CMTM4 expression in human gastric biopsied cells from patients with GC (N=23) or chronic superficial gastritis (N=23). To investigate the function of CMTM4 in GC cells, the gene Results: CMTM4 expression was more downregulated in the human GC tissues than the gastritis tissues. CMTM4 overexpression significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of the GC cells, whereas CMTM4 knockdown enhanced gastric cell proliferation (P>0.05), migration (P>0.05), and invasion (P>0.05). Flow cytometry showed that CMTM4 promoted apoptosis and resulted in G1/S arrest in the GC cells. In addition, the proteome and western blot results showed that STAT1 was significantly upregulated, and the STAT1 signaling pathways were enriched in the GC cells overexpressing CMTM4. Conclusions: Our results suggest that CMTM4 plays a tumor-suppressive role in GC and may affect the growth, migration, and invasion of GC cells through the STAT1 signaling pathway. CMTM4 might have potential value as a prognosis marker and potential therapeutic target for GC therapy.
