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

backgroundGastric cancer (GC) is the fifth most common cancer and the third most common cause of cancer death worldwide. Plant homeodomain (PHD)-finger domain protein PHF5A has been demonstrated to play a promoting role in a variety of cancers. This study aimed to clarify the role of PHF5A in the progression of GC and its potential mechanism of action.

methodsImmunohistochemical staining experiments were performed based on tissues from clinical GC patients to reveal PHF5A expression. A series of functional experiments in vitro and in vivo were used to clarify the role of PHF5A in GC.

resultsClinically, PHF5A was abundantly expressed in GC and existed clinical value indicating poor prognosis. In addition, GC cells with knockdown of PHF5A expression showed slowed proliferation, enhanced sensitivity to apoptosis and inhibition of migration. Mechanically, knockdown of PHF5A led to decreased protein stability of FOS, which was mediated ubiquitination of E3 ubiquitin ligase S-phase kinase-associated protein 2 (SKP2). Moreover, downregulation of FOS attenuated the promotion of PHF5A overexpression on GC cells. Consistently, Pladienolide B (PHF5A inhibitor) treatment reversed the induction of PHF5A overexpression on the malignant phenotypes and tumor formation of GC cells.

conclusionKnockdown of PHF5A inhibited the progression of GC through SKP2-mediated ubiquitination of FOS, which may be a promising candidate target with potential therapeutic value.
