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

Previous years have witnessed the importance of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in cancer research. The lncRNA Pvt1 oncogene (non-protein coding) (PVT1) was revealed to be upregulated in various cancer types. The aim of the present study was to investigate the function of PVT1 in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). The expression of PVT1 in ccRCC was analyzed using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and it was revealed that PVT1 expression was upregulated in ccRCC tissues compared with that in normal adjacent tissues. Next, PVT1 expression from The Cancer Genome Atlas datasets was validated, and it was also revealed that the high expression of PVT1 was associated with advanced disease stage and a poor prognosis. Furthermore, the knockdown of PVT1 induced apoptosis by increasing the expression of poly ADP ribose polymerase and Bcl-2-associated X protein, and promoted cell cycle arrest at the G1 phase by decreasing the expression of cyclin D1. Study of the mechanism involved indicated that PVT1 promoted the progression of ccRCC partly through activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor pathway. Altogether, the results of the present study suggested that PVT1 serves oncogenic functions and may be a biomarker and therapeutic target in ccRCC.
