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 the most common and lethal gynaecological tumor. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have critical roles in various cancers, including cervical cancer. However, few studies investigated the diagnostic value of lncRNAs for cervical cancer. In this study, we investigated the expression pattern of a recently identified lncRNA GIHCG in cervical cancer tissues, cell lines, and serums by qRT-PCR. Furthermore, we explored the roles of GIHCG in cervical cancer using gain-of-function and loss-of-function assays. Our results revealed that GIHCG is up-regulated in cervical cancer tissues and cell lines compared with adjacent normal tissues and normal cervical epithelial cell line, respectively. Furthermore, serum GIHCG is significantly up-regulated in cervical cancer patients compared with healthy controls. ROC curve analysis revealed that serum GIHCG could accurately discriminate cervical cancer patients from healthy controls. Functionally, we found that overexpression of GIHCG promotes cell proliferation, inhibits cell apoptosis, and promotes cell migration of cervical cancer cells. Conversely, depletion of GIHCG inhibits cell proliferation, induces cell apoptosis, and inhibits cell migration of cervical cancer cells. Mechanistically, we found that GIHCG represses the expression of miR-200b. The expression of miR-200b is inversely correlated with the expression of GIHCG in cervical cancer tissues. Moreover, overexpression of miR-200b attenuates the roles of GIHCG in promoting cervical cancer tumor growth
