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

backgroundPancreatic cancer (PC) remains one of the most aggressive cancers worldwide. However, genetic factors underlying PC susceptibility remain largely unclear. Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) HOX transcript antisense RNA (HOTAIR) acts as an oncogene and its genetic variation has been linked to many cancers. However, the associations between genetic variants in HOTAIR gene and PC risk has not yet been reported.

methodsA two-stage, case-control study was conducted to investigate the associations between HOTAIR SNPs and the PC risk. Dual luciferase reporter assay and real-time -PCR (RT-PCR) was conducted to evaluate the potential regulatory function of HOTAIR rs4759314 and rs200349340.

resultsWe found the minor alleles of rs4759314 (OR = 1.76; 95 CI 1.37-2.25; P = 0.001) and rs200349340 (OR = 1.32; 95 CI 1.12-1.56; P = 0.001) were significantly associated with PC susceptibility. In functional experiments, we found subjects carrying the minor alleles of rs4759314 and rs200349340 had significantly higher HOTAIR RNA levels (mean ± SD) than those carrying the major alleles in PC tissues. For rs4759314, cells transfected with rs4759314 -G allele construct showed higher relative luciferase activity; while for rs200349340, cells transfected with rs200349340 -G allele construct showed more sensitive change of the relative luciferase activity.

conclusionOur studies revealed that functional SNP rs4759314 and rs200349340 of HOTAIR had strong associations with PC susceptibility. These findings elucidate that functional genetic variants influencing lncRNA expression may explain a portion of PC genetic basis.
