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

Recent studies have exhibited significant roles of lncRNAs in various tumors' development, including colon cancer. Our study focused on the biological roles of lncRNA MALAT1 in colon cancer. In our study, it was demonstrated that MALAT1 was upregulated in human colon cancer cell lines including Lovo, HCT116, SW480, and HT29 cells compared to the normal human intestinal epithelial HIEC cells. Moreover, we observed that miR-129-5p was downregulated in colon cancer cells with a significant increase of HMGB1 expression. Inhibition of MALAT1 can inhibit the proliferation of colon cancer SW480 and HCT116 cells and next, bioinformatics analysis was used to predict the target microRNA of MALAT1. miR-129-5p was identified and confirmed as a direct regulator of MALAT1 and it was shown that miR-129-5p mimics were able to restrain the progression of colon cancer cells. In addition, high motility group box protein 1 (HMGB1), was predicted as a mRNA target of miR-129-5p. Furthermore, we found that MALAT1 exerted its biological functions through regulating HMGB1 by sponging miR-129-5p in vitro. Silencing MALAT1 greatly inhibited HMGB1 expression which can be reversed by miR-129-5p inhibitors. It was indicated in our investigation that MALAT1 may serve as a competing endogenous lncRNA (ceRNA) to mediate HMGB1 by sponging miR-129-5p in colon cancer. Taken together, our results indicated that MALAT1/miR-129-5p/HMGB1 axis could be provided as an important prognostic biomarker in colon cancer development.
