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

Ovarian cancer (OC) peritoneal metastasis (OCPM) is a major cause of high mortality of OC, in which cancer cells incubated in ascites evolve various mechanisms to survive. Hippo/YAP singling plays multiple roles in carcinogenesis, however, its roles in OCPM have remained elusive. Here, we report that restriction of YWHAB-mediated YAP cytoplasmic retention is a critical mechanism underlying OCPM stemness maintenance. Combined tandem mass tag- and tissue microarray-based proteomic studies revealed YWHAB down-regulation in post-neoadjuvant chemotherapy OCPM tissues, which was confirmed in no-neoadjuvant-chemotherapy-response tissues, isolated OCPM stem cells, and induced cisplatin-resistant cells. Knockdown of YWHAB promoted stemness and resistance in parental complete or near-complete primary OCPM and OVCAR3 cells
