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

Ovarian cancer is a gynecological malignant tumor with a high mortality rate among women, owing to metastatic progression and recurrence. Acquisition of invasiveness is accompanied by the loss of epithelial features and a gain of a mesenchymal phenotype, a process known as epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) has been implicated in the regulation of EMT. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the role of long noncoding RNA H19 and microRNA-370 (miR-370-3p) in TGF-β-induced EMT. Ovarian cancer cell lines SKOV-3 and OVCAR3 were incubated with different concentrations of TGF-β, and the results showed that TGF-β treatment upregulated H19 and downregulated miR-370-3p. In addition, an H19 knockdown or miR-370-3p overexpression suppressed TGF-β-induced EMT, while H19 overexpression or a miR-370-3p knockdown promoted TGF-β-induced EMT. Mechanistically, H19 could directly bind to miR-370-3p and effectively act as its competing endogenous RNA. Furthermore, we demonstrated that this activity of H19 was involved in its promotion of TGF-β-induced EMT. Thus, our results may provide novel insights into the process of TGF-β-induced EMT.
