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

This study investigates the early oncogenic transformation of gastric epithelial cells (GES-1) and adenocarcinoma cells (AGS) following long-term exposure to N-nitroso compounds (NOCs), using N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) as a model carcinogen. Prolonged MNNG treatment enhanced proliferation, migration, invasion, and anchorage-independent growth. These effects were accompanied by persistent activation of endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) and autophagy, characterized by elevated PERK, eIF2α, ATF4, CHOP, Beclin-1, and LC3-II, and reduced p62. Long non-coding RNA nuclear-enriched abundant transcript 1 (NEAT1) was markedly upregulated and acted as a competing endogenous RNA, sponging microRNA-329-3p (miR-329-3p) to derepress ATF4. Silencing NEAT1 or restoring miR-329-3p expression suppressed ERS, autophagy, and malignant traits. These findings establish a NEAT1/miR-329-3p/ATF4 signaling axis that links stress response to early gastric epithelial transformation, offering a potential target for intervention.
