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

Epstein-Barr virus-associated gastric carcinoma (EBVaGC), a distinct subtype of gastric cancer, accounts for approximately 10 % of all gastric cancer cases. 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG), a glycolysis inhibitor, has emerged as a crucial tool in cancer therapy. However, the differential effects of 2-DG on EBVaGC and EBV-negative gastric carcinoma (EBVnGC) are not yet fully understood. In this study, we demonstrated that 2-DG inhibited the proliferation of both AGS and AGS-EBV cells, with AGS-EBV cells exhibiting greater sensitivity, particularly under hypoxic conditions. Furthermore, EBV infection was found to upregulate glycolytic gene expression in AGS-EBV cells, particularly under hypoxic conditions, through HIF-1α-dependent mechanisms. Notably, 2-DG also inhibited EBV lytic reactivation in AGS-EBV cells under hypoxic conditions. These findings provide valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms of EBV-mediated metabolic reprogramming and highlight the potential of 2-DG as a therapeutic agent for EBVaGC.
