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

Introduction: Ovarian cancer (OC) is one of the most common gynecological malignancies with an extremely poor prognosis. Among them, epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the most common histological type and exhibits more aggressive behavior. Non-SMC condensin II complex subunit G2 (NCAPG2) is crucial for the execution of chromosomal mitosis and the promotion of tumorigenesis, but its role in the progression of EOC remains unclear. Method: In this study, we first analyzed the expression of NCAPG2 in EOC using data from the cancer genome atlas program (TCGA) database, Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project, and the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) dataset (GSE9891). Subsequently, bioinformatics tools were used to explore the expression of NCAPG2 in EOC and its related functions. In addition, we also evaluated the role of NCAPG2 in DNA damage repair, chemotherapy resistance, immune cell infiltration, and immunotherapy response. Finally, its expression and function have been verified through clinical samples and Result: Analyses of databases revealed that NCAPG2 is significantly overexpressed in EOC tissues and cells. NCAPG2 plays a role in DNA damage repair, chemotherapy resistance, immune cell infiltration, and immunotherapy response. More importantly, knockdown of NCAPG2 by siRNA can inhibit the proliferation, migration, and invasion abilities of EOC cells A2780 and OVCAR3 Conclusion: High expression of NCAPG2 can promote the progression of EOC and may serve as a potential novel therapeutic target for EOC.
