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

backgroundEmerging evidence indicates that dysregulated long intervening non-coding RNA (lincRNA) HOTAIR correlates highly with tumor invasion and metastasis but a link between the high expression of HOTAIR and the metastatic cascade of cancer stem cells (CSCs) needs to be further studied. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of down-regulated HOTAIR expression on tumorgeniesis and metastasis of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) CSCs. CD117(+)CD44(+)CSCs were isolated from human EOC SKOV3 cell line by using a magnetic-activated cell sorting system, and were then transfected with the expression vector-based small hairpin RNA targeting HOTAIR; the stably transfected cells were selected for the study. Colony-forming, wound-healing, cellular metastasis and tumorigenicity assays were performed.

resultsThe results demonstrated that the HOTAIR expression in clinical EOC tissues and SKOV3 CD117(+)CD44(+)CSCs was higher than in SKOV3 tumor tissues and non-CD117(+)CD44(+)CSCs. The CD117(+)CD44(+)-shHOTAIR showed an inhibited HOTAIR expression, reduced cell migration and invasion than CD117(+)CD44(+)- scramble, suggesting the inhibition of an epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Moreover, the downregulated HOTAIR expression in CD117(+)CD44(+) CSCs significantly decreased the tumor growth and lung metastasis in xenograft mice.

conclusionOur findings demonstrated the shHOTAIR-mediated down-regulation of the HOTAIR expression in CD117(+)CD44(+) CSCs can be a promising new opportunity for future clinical trials.
