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

backgroundMYBL2, a member of the MYB transcription factor family, promotes the advancement of certain types of malignancies. However, the involvement of MYBL2 in endometrial cancer (EC) remains uncertain, and its investigation at the pan-cancer level is ongoing.

methodsIn order to conduct an analysis and visualisation of The Cancer Genome Atlas and Genotype-Tissue Expression databases, along with transcriptomic data, we employed the use of R software and various online tools. Additionally, the effects of MYBL2 downregulation on the functional capabilities of EC cells were investigated using a range of methods, including the CCK8 assay, Transwell assay, flow cytometry assay, and western blot analysis. Furthermore, the expression of MYBL2 was evaluated in clinical EC tissues and tumour sections of nude mice through the utilisation of an immunohistochemical assay.

resultsWe identified MYBL2 as a potential target for the impact of icariside II on EC progression. Meanwhile, we successfully developed a prognostic model for MYBL2 expression in patients with EC. Moreover, a notable decrease in EC cell growth and migration was observed when MYBL2 expression was suppressed. Our pan-cancer examination revealed that MYBL2 was significantly upregulated in most malignancies and was associated with poor prognosis in these cases. Moreover, there was an important connection between high MYBL2 expression and immune cell infiltration as well as immune checkpoint genes.

conclusionsThese outcomes emphasise the notable relationship between cancer progression and the expression of MYBL2, indicating that MYBL2 could function as a potential biomarker for the prognosis and immunotherapy of malignancies. These results provide a new perspective for cancer treatment, particularly for EC.
