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

Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancers in females, accounting for a majority of cancer-related deaths in worldwide. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been identified as critical regulators in many tumor-related biological processes. Thus, investigation into the function and mechanism of lncRNAs in the development of cervical cancer is very necessary. In this study, we found that the expression of TOB1-AS1 was significantly decreased in cervical cancer tissues compared with the adjacent normal tissues. The methylation status of TOB1-AS1-related CpG island was analyzed using methylation specific PCR and bisulfite sequencing analysis, revealing that the aberrant hypermethylation of TOB1-AS1-related CpG island was frequently observed in primary tumors and cervical cancer cells. The expression of TOB1-AS1 in cervical cancer cells could be reversed by demethylation agent treatment. Functionally, overexpression of TOB1-AS1 significantly inhibited cell proliferation, cell cycle progression, invasion and induced apoptosis, while knockdown of TOB1-AS1 exhibited the opposite effect. Furthermore, it was determined that TOB1-AS1 was able to bind and degrade the expression of miR-27b. Upregulation of miR-27b promoted cell growth, cell cycle transition from G1 phase to S phase, and invasion and reduced apoptosis, phenomenon could be reversed by TOB1-AS1. Inhibition of miR-27b attenuated the promotive effect of si-TOB1-AS1 on cellular processes. Upregulation of TOB1-AS1 also suppressed tumor growth
