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

GHET1 is an oncogenic long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) that promotes the proliferation and invasion of many malignant cell types. However, the function and underlying mechanisms of lncRNA GHET1 in gastric cancer are not fully understood. In this study, the expression of GHET1 was investigated in gastric cancer and it was determined whether GHET1 may potentially be used as a biomarker for the disease. The gastric cancer cell lines MGC‑803 and AGS were transfected with GHET1‑directed small interfering RNA (siRNA) and the changes in phenotype and cell‑cycle‑related molecules were assessed. The downregulation of GHET1 induced G0/G1‑phase arrest in gastric cancer cells and inhibited their proliferation, migration, and invasion. DNA synthesis and the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) decreased, which was consistent with the results of the CCK‑8 assay. The levels of specific cell‑cycle regulators were determined and the expression and activities of positive cell‑cycle regulators (cyclin D, CDK4, CDK6, cyclin E, CDK2) were reduced, whereas those of a negative regulator (P21) were increased in GHET1‑knockdown cells. Taken together, the present findings show that the downregulation of GHET1 not only inhibits the migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells, but also inhibits their proliferation, at least in part by upregulating P21 expression and downregulating cyclin and CDK expression to inhibit the G0/G1 to S phase transition. The present findings may provide a potential therapeutic target for gastric cancer.
