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

SULF1 has been implicated in a number of malignancies. The function of SULF1 in gastric cancer is disputed. The objective of this study was to examine the role and underlying molecular mechanisms of SULF1 in the context of gastric cancer. We found that the expression of SULF1 was increased in gastric cancer, especially in cancer-associated fibroblasts. The overexpression of SULF1 was found to be significantly correlated with unfavorable prognosis among individuals diagnosed with gastric cancer. Functionally, cancer-associated fibroblasts-derived SULF1 served as a oncogenic molecule which facilitated gastric cancer cells metastasis and CDDP resistance. Mechanistically, SULF1 regulated the communication between gastric cancer cells and cancer-associated fibroblasts in tumor microenvironment as a signaling molecule. Cancer-associated fibroblasts-secreted SULF1 interfered with the interaction between TGF-β1 and TGFBR3 by combining with TGFBR3 on gastric cancer cell membrane, subsequently activated TGF-β signaling pathway. In conclusion, our findings have presented novel approaches for potential treatment and prognosis prediction in individuals diagnosed with gastric cancer through the targeting of the CAFs-SULF1-TGFBR3-TGF-β1 signaling axis.
