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

An increasing body of evidence suggests that acylphosphatase-2 (ACYP2) polymorphisms are correlated with an increased susceptibility to a range of malignancies. Nevertheless, its potential functions, molecular mechanisms in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and whether it can be act as a therapeutic target remain uninvestigated. Herein, ACYP2 was found to be lowly expressed in HCC and was negatively correlated with tumor size, tumor differentiation, microvascular invasion and the prognosis of HCC patients. Functional investigations revealed that overexpression of ACYP2 inhibited the proliferation and metastasis of HCC cells while promoting apoptosis; knockdown of ACYP2 had the exact opposite effect. Additionally, it was observed that ACYP2 was distributed in both the cytoplasm and nucleus of HCC cells. According to the mechanistic studies, the expression of potassium calcium-activated channel subfamily N member 4 (KCNN4) was negatively regulated by cytoplasmic ACYP2, resulting in the inhibition of K
