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

BACKGROUND Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been acknowledged as important regulators in human cancers, including ovarian cancer. Several reports identified lncRNA FEZF1-AS1 as an oncogene in gastric cancer, colorectal carcinoma, and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the function of FEZF1-AS1 in ovarian cancer remains largely unknown. This study was aimed to investigate the role of FEZF1-AS1 in ovarian cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS FEZF1-AS1 expression levels in pairs of ovarian cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Kaplan-Meier curve analysis was used to determine the correlation between FEZF1-AS1 expression and prognosis in ovarian cancer patients. The effects of FEZF1-AS1 knockdown on ovarian cancer cell proliferation, cell-cycle, and apoptosis were analyzed by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK8) and Fluorescence activated Cell Sorting (FACS) assays. Western blot was utilized to assess the effect of FEZF1-AS1 on the activation of JAK-STAT3 pathway. RESULTS FEZF1-AS1 was overexpressed in ovarian cancer tissues compared to adjacent normal tissues. Consistently, FEZF1-AS1 expression was also upregulated in ovarian cancer cell lines compared with normal cell line. Furthermore, higher expression of FEZF1-AS1 in ovarian cancer patients contributed to poorer prognosis. FEZF1-AS1 knockdown significantly suppressed the proliferation and promoted apoptosis in ovarian cancer cells. In mechanism, FEZF1-AS1 regulated activation of JAK-STAT3 signaling pathway by modulating STAT3 phosphorylation. Knockdown of FEZF1-AS1 significantly impaired the phosphorylation of STAT3. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrated that FEZF1-AS1 exerted an oncogenic role in ovarian cancer via modulating JAK-STAT3 pathway.
