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

The circular RNA RAPGEF5 (circRAPGEF5) is generated from five exons of the RAPGEF5 gene and abnormal expression in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). However, whether circRAPGEF5 plays a role in PTC tumorigenesis remains unclear. The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of circRAPGEF5 in PTC. The results showed that circRAPGEF5 was upregulated in PTC tissues and cell lines. circRAPGEF5 knockdown inhibited cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro; and circRAPGEF5 silencing downregulated fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) expression by "sponging" miR-198, suppressing the aggressive biological behaviors of PTC. Luciferase reporter assays confirmed that circRAPGEF5 interacted with miR-198 and that miR-198 interacted with the 3' UTR of FGFR1 to downregulate its expression. Xenograft experiments confirmed that circRAPGEF5 knockdown suppressed FGFR1-mediated tumor growth by promoting miR-198 expression. circRAPGEF5 acts as a tumor promoter via a novel circRAPGEF5/miR-198/FGFR1 axis, providing a potential biomarker and therapeutic target for the management of PTC.
