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

backgroundIn recent years, many studies have shown that proteasome 26S subunit non-ATPase 6 (PSMD6) plays an important role in the occurrence and development of malignant tumours. Unfortunately, there are no reports on the evaluation of the potential role of PSMD6 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

aimTo comprehensively evaluate the overexpression pattern and clinical significance of PSMD6 in HCC tissues.

methodsThis study integrated PSMD6 mRNA expression profiles from 4672 HCC and 3667 non-HCC tissues, along with immunohistochemical scores from 383 HCC and adjacent tissues, to assess PSMD6 overexpression in HCC. Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats knockout technology evaluated PSMD6's essential role in HCC cell growth. Functional enrichment analysis explored the molecular mechanism of PSMD6 abnormalities in HCC. Drug sensitivity analysis and molecular docking analysed the effect of abnormal expression of PSMD6 on the drug sensitivity of HCC cells.

resultsThe results of 41 external and two internal datasets showed that PSMD6 mRNA (SMD = 0.26, 95%CI: 0.09-0.42,

conclusionThis study was the first to discover that PSMD6 was overexpressed in HCC tissues. PSMD6 is essential for the growth of HCC cells and may be involved in ribosome biogenesis and RNA splicing.
