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

Gastric cancer is a malignancy with a high incidence and poor prognosis. The identification of novel molecular markers and elucidation of their underlying mechanisms may provide new avenues for improving therapeutic strategies. The present study analyzed the association between GPR176 expression and clinicopathological features using The Cancer Genome Atlas‑Stomach Adenocarcinoma and GSE66254 datasets, and further validated the findings in patients from The First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University (Nanning, China). The migratory and invasive abilities of gastric cancer cells were assessed using Transwell and wound‑healing assays. Western blotting was carried out to evaluate the effects of GPR176 on the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.
