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

Cervical cancer is a common malignancy of the female reproductive system. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been reported to modulate tumor progression in multiple cancers. The lncRNA antisense noncoding RNA in the INK4 locus (ANRIL) has been identified as an oncogenic molecular target in several tumors; however, the function and underlying mechanism involved in cervical cancer oncogenesis are still unclear. In the present study, RT-PCR showed that ANRIL expression was significantly upregulated in cervical cancer tumors and cell lines. Nevertheless, ANRIL knockdown transfected with interference oligonucleotide inhibited the proliferation activity and invasive ability, and promoted apoptosis of cervical cancer cell lines. The bioinformatics prediction program and luciferase assay predicted and validated that miR-186 directly targeted ANRIL. The expression level of miR-186 was downregulated in cervical cancer tumors and cell lines and was negatively correlated to that of ANRIL. Moreover, rescue experiments showed that miR-186 inhibitor could reverse the suppression of ANRIL knockdown. In summary, our study demonstrated that the ANRIL/miR-186 axis might play a vital role in cervical cancer tumorigenesis.
