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

purposeSparc/osteonectin, cwcv, and kazal-like domains proteoglycan 1 (SPOCK1) has been found in a variety of malignant tumors and is associated with a poor prognosis. We aimed to explore the role of SPOCK1 in ovarian cancer.

methodsOvarian cancer cell lines SKOV3 and SW626 were transfected with SPOCK1 overexpressing or empty vector using electroporation. Cells were studied by immunostaining and an automated Western blotting system. BrdU uptake and wound healing assays assessed cell proliferation and migration. SPOCK1 expression in human ovarian cancer tissues and in blood samples were studied by immunostaining and ELISA. Survival of patients with tumors exhibiting low and high SPOCK1 expression was analyzed using online tools.

resultsBoth transfected cell lines synthesized different SPOCK1 variants; SKOV3 cells also secreted the proteoglycan. SPOCK1 overexpression stimulated DNA synthesis and cell migration involving p21

conclusionOur findings suggest SPOCK1 may be a viable anti-tumor therapeutic target and could be used for monitoring ovarian cancer.
