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

backgroundLong noncoding RNA (lncRNA) Sox2 overlapping transcript (SOX2OT) has been reported to be upregulated in various types of cancers, including non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the biological role and underlying mechanism of SOX2OT activity in NSCLC remain largely unknown. This study aims to investigate the function and possible molecular mechanisms of SOX2OT in NSCLC. MATERIALS AND

methodsQuantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction was used to detect SOX2OT expression, and cellular proliferation, migration, and invasion were measured using cell counting kit-8, wound healing, and Transwell invasion assays, respectively. Western blotting was used to determine protein expression. Starbase 2.0 and luciferase reporter assay were utilized to identify the molecular target of SOX2OT.

resultsHere, we discovered that SOX2OT was markedly upregulated in NSCLC tissues and cell lines. Knockdown of SOX2OT inhibited the proliferation, migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process in NSCLC cells. Moreover, we explored the regulatory mechanism of SOX2OT and found that SOX2OT directly bound microRNA 132 (miR-132) in NSCLC cells. Importantly, miR-132 inhibition partially reversed the SOX2OT knockdown-mediated inhibitory effect on cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and EMT process. We also found that SOX2OT could regulate zinc finger E-box-binding homeobox 2 (a target of miR-132) expression, which played crucial roles in tumor cell proliferation and invasion.

conclusionThese findings indicated that SOX2OT was a noncoding oncogene that exerted important regulatory functions in NSCLC via sponging miR-132 and might represent a novel strategy for overcoming this disease.
