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

Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is a highly aggressive biliary cancer originating within the liver with a high incidence, high degree of malignancy and extremely poor prognosis. Protein tyrosine phosphatase 4A1 (PTP4A1) plays a carcinogenic role in numerous tumors. However, the role of PTP4A1 in the progression of ICC has not been fully elucidated. The aim of the present study was to clarify the function of PTP4A1 in ICC. Cell Counting Kit‑8 assay, 5‑ethynyl‑2'‑deoxyuridine staining and a cell colony formation assay were performed to detect cell proliferation and viability. Wound healing and Transwell assays were used to analyze cell migration and invasion. The interaction of PTP4A1 with phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) was validated by immunofluorescence and co‑immunoprecipitation assays. Reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR, western blotting and immunohistochemistry were used to evaluate the mRNA and protein expression levels. The present study demonstrated that PTP4A1 was highly expressed and associated with invasive pathological features in ICC. Furthermore, PTP4A1 promoted ICC cell proliferation, migration and invasion both
