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

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are key regulators in the development and progression of human cancers, however its role in cervical cancer tumorigenesis is not well understood. The present study aims to investigate the expression profiles and potential modulation of circRNA on cervical cancer carcinogenesis. Human circRNA microarray was performed to screen for abnormally expressed circRNA in cervical cancer cells and circRNA-000284 was identified as one circRNA significantly upregulated in cervical cancer cells. Subsequent mechanistic investigations suggested that knockdown of circRNA-000284 suppressed cell proliferation and invasion, and caused G0/G1 phase cell cycle arrest. By performing anti-AGO2 RNA precipitation and luciferase reporter assay, we identified miR-506 as the circRNA-000284-associated miRNA. Furthermore, Snail-2 was identified as a direct target of miR-506, and circRNA-000284 could positively regulate the expression of Snail-2. Finally, the tumor promoting effect of circRNA-000284 was abolished by co-expression of miR-506 mimics or Snail-2 silencing vector. In conclusion, circRNA-000284 promotes cell proliferation and invasion in cervical cancer, and may serve as a promising therapeutic target for cervical cancer patients. Therefore, silence of circRNA-000284 could be a future direction to develop a novel treatment strategy.
