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

SAE1, a key factor in tumour development, has not been thoroughly examined in pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD), a cancer with high incidence and poor prognosis. We conducted a comprehensive study, integrating mRNA data, immunohistochemistry, CRISPR-modified cell line analysis and single-cell RNA sequencing to assess SAE1's role in PAAD. We also used ChIP-Seq to explore SAE1's transcriptional regulation and analysed clinical data, drug sensitivity and molecular docking models. SAE1 mRNA was significantly overexpressed in PAAD, with a substantial impact on cell proliferation and migration. Functional analyses linked SAE1 to cell cycle and DNA replication pathways, suggesting a role in PAAD development. Our study indicates that SAE1 may promote PAAD through cell cycle pathways, with FOXA1 potentially regulating SAE1's abnormal behaviour.
