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

objectiveThe roles of transcriptional factor PR/SET domain 1 (PRDM1) have been revealed in numerous tumor types. However, its effects on gastric cancer progression are still confusing. This study aimed to explore the roles and underlying mechanisms of PRDM1 in gastric cancer progression.

methodsIn silico analysis was used to analyze gene expression levels, expression correlation, and the relationship with patients' survivals. Functional experiments, including Western blot, RT-qPCR, sphere-formation ability, cytometry analysis, and tumorigenic analysis, were conducted to evaluate PRDM1's effects on gastric cancer stemness. ChIP, luciferase reporter, and bioinformatic analysis were performed to reveal the underlying mechanisms.

resultswe demonstrated that PRDM1 was highly expressed in gastric cancer tissues and cells. Knockdown of PRDM1 significantly attenuated gastric cancer stemness. Mechanistical studies indicated that PRDM1 directly bound to the promoter region of Myc, a critical contributor of cancer stem cells (CSCs), and thus enhanced Myc transcription activity.

conclusionsTaken together, this study indicates that PRDM1 could enhance gastric cancer stemness by increasing the transcriptional activity.
