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

backgroundPVT1 was up-regulated in patients with gastric cancer (GC) and might be as a novel biomarker for predicting GC. However, the exact mechanism of PVT1 exerting functions in GC was still poorly understood. Emerging evidence suggests that long noncoding RNAs may act as endogenous microRNA (miRNA) sponges to bind to miRNAs and regulate their function.

aimThis study aimed to determine the function of PVT1 on miR-152 expression in GC cells.

methodsThe levels of PVT1 and miR-152 were determined in GC tissues by quantitative real-time PCR. The expression of miR-152 was detected in GC cells transfected with PVT1 plasmid or siPVT1. Luciferase assay was performed to verify the regulation of miR-152 to CD151 or FGF2 expression and PVT1 to miR-152 expression. The effects of PVT1 on the expression of CD151 and FGF2 were evaluated by Western blot.

resultsPVT1 was up-regulated in GC tissues than that in the matched normal tissues, and mRNA level of miR-152 was decreased. MiR-152 was negatively associated with PVT1 expression in GC tissues. Based on the in silico analysis, we found that PVT1 have three binding sequences for miR-152. Moreover, PVT1 might inhibit the expression of miR-152 and increased the expression of CD151 and FGF2 through regulating miR-152. PVT1 was positively associated with CD151 and FGF2 expression in GC tissues.

conclusionsPVT1 might act as a "sponge" to inhibit miR-152 in gastric cancer cells. PVT1 is a promising molecular target to improve the diagnosis and therapy of GC.
