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

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is an aggressive liver malignancy, the molecular mechanisms underlying the progression of which are not fully understood. As a component of the chaperonin‑containing tailless complex polypeptide 1 (TCP1) ring complex, chaperonin‑containing TCP1 subunit 2 (CCT2) participates in the development of numerous types of liver disease. However, the potential role of CCT2 in regulating HCC malignant behaviors remains unclear. In the present study, bioinformatics analysis of patients with HCC from public datasets (The Cancer Genome Atlas‑Liver HCC, International Cancer Genome Consortium‑Liver Cancer‑Riken‑Japan and OEP00000321) demonstrated that CCT2 expression was upregulated in HCC tissue. High expression of CCT2 was also associated with an unfavorable overall survival prognosis. CCT2 knockdown was shown to inhibit the proliferation, migration, invasion and stemness and promote the apoptosis of HCC cells
