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

objectiveTo investigate pantothenate kinases 1 (PANK1) expression in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) tissues, analyze its correlation with clinicopathological features and prognosis, and explore its impact on invasion, migration, and apoptosis in KIRC cells.

methodsGEPIA (gene expression profiling interactive analysis), UALCAN and LinkedOmics, were employed to analyze PANK1 expression in KIRC tissues and its correlation with clinical characteristics. Comparative analyses were performed between KIRC (Caki-1 and 786-O) and noncancerous renal cells (HK-2 and RPTEC). Transfection with PANK1 activation particles was conducted, followed by Wound healing, Transwell assay, Annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate/propidium iodide (Annexin V-FITC/PI) staining, quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), and Western blotting.

resultsPANK1 was down-regulated in KIRC tissues and cells compared to normal tissues and noncancerous cells. Correlation analyses linked PANK1 expression with clinicopathological features in KIRC, with high PANK1 expression associated with a favorable outcome. High PANK1 expression correlated positively with E-cadherin (CDH1), tight junction protein 1 (TJP1), Fas cell surface death receptor (FAS), caspase-8 (CASP8), and CASP9, while showing a negative correlation with vimentin (VIM), snail family transcriptional repressor 1 (SNAIL1), twist family BHLH transcription factor 1 (TWIST1), and TWIST2. PANK1 overexpression increased CDH1, TJP1, FAS, CASP8, and CASP9 while downregulating SNAIL1, VIM, TWIST1, and TWIST2, inhibiting invasion and migration, and promoting apoptosis in KIRC cells.

conclusionPANK1 down-regulation in KIRC tissues correlated with clinicopathological features and prognosis. Its overexpression modulated epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related gene, inhibited invasion, promoted apoptosis in KIRC cells, highlighting its role in disease progression and therapeutic potential.
