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

backgroundClear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) has a high degree of malignancy and poor overall prognosis in advanced and metastatic patients. Therefore, it is of great significance to find new prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for ccRCC. The expression of progestin and adipoQ receptor family member 5 (PAQR5) is significantly downregulated in ccRCC compared with normal tissues, but its specific mechanism and potential biological function in ccRCC remain unclear.

methodsThe expression pattern of PAQR5 and the correlation between the PAQR5 expression and clinicopathological parameters and various survival periods in ccRCC patients were analyzed by using multiple public databases and ccRCC tissues chip. Its prognostic value was analyzed by univariate/multivariate Cox regression. In addition, MTT assay, EdU staining assay, flow cytometry, wound healing assay, transwell migration and invasion assay, colony formation assay, immunofluorescence assay, and a xenograft tumor model were conducted to assess the biological function of PAQR5 in ccRCC in vitro and in vivo.

resultsOur results indicated that the downregulation of PAQR5 was demonstrated in ccRCC tumor tissues and associated with poorer OS, DSS, and PFI. Meanwhile, the univariate/multivariate Cox regression analysis confirmed that PAQR5 might serve as an independent prognostic factor for ccRCC, and its low expression was tightly correlated with tumor progression and distant metastasis. Mechanistically, a series of gain- and loss-of-function assay revealed that PAQR5 could suppress the ccRCC proliferation, invasion, metastasis, and tumorigenicity in vitro and in vivo by inhibiting the JAK/STAT3 signaling pathway.

conclusionOur study revealed the tumor suppressor role of PAQR5 in ccRCC. PAQR5 is a valuable prognostic biomarker for ccRCC and may provide new strategies for clinical targeted therapy.
