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

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) function as tumor suppressors or oncogenes in tumor development and progression. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the clinical significance and functional role of lncRNA TP73-AS1 in gastric cancer (GC). Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis demonstrated that TP73-AS1 was significantly upregulated in GC tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues. The higher expression of TP73-AS1 was closely associated with lymph node metastasis and tumor-node-metastasis stage in patients with GC. Those patients with GC showing a higher expression of TP73-AS1 were predicted to have shorter disease-free survival and overall survival rates. The knockdown of TP73-AS1 was shown to markedly inhibit cell proliferation, cell colony formation and cell invasion. In addition, the downregulation of TP73-AS1 suppressed the expression of transcription factor 4 and β-catenin, which suggested that a decrease in TP73-AS1 suppressed the WNT/β-catenin signaling pathway in GC. Therefore, these results indicated that TP73-AS1 may be a target for GC treatment.
