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

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is the most frequently occurring carcinoma of the head and neck. The complexity of NPC makes it difficult for it to be diagnosed and treated at an early stage. Certain long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are closely associated with the carcinogenesis of NPC. In the present study, the expression of lncRNA ZNF674-1 in NPC tissues and an NPC cell line was analyzed and was revealed to be downregulated compared with normal tissues and cells. When the expression of lncRNA ZNF674-1 was reduced in NPC cells, the proliferation, migration and invasion of these cells was promoted, whereas the apoptosis of these cells was decreased. On the contrary, when overexpressed, the expression of lncRNA ZNF674-1 inhibited the proliferation, invasion and migration of cells, but promoted cell apoptosis. The results of the present study reveal that the lncRNA ZNF67-1 may restrain the carcinogenesis of NPC, and may also serve as a potential biomarker for the early diagnosis and treatment of NPC.
