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

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are identified as vital modulators in a number of biological processes, including tumorigenesis. However, the role of lncRNAs in endometrial carcinoma (EC) remains unknown. In the current study, the expression patterns, biological roles and functional mechanism of the lncRNA colon cancer associated transcript 1 (CCAT1) was examined in EC. The expression level of CCAT1 was significantly upregulated in EC tissue samples compared with matched adjacent healthy tissue samples from patients with endometrial cancer. Similarly, CCAT1 was significantly upregulated in several EC cell lines (KLE, Ishiwaka and HEC-1-A), compared with the normal human endometrial stromal cell line T-HESC. Cell counting kit-8 and Transwell migration assays demonstrated that CCAT1 knockdown significantly decreased EC cell proliferation and migration. In addition, CCAT1 was confirmed as a target gene of miR-181a-5p in EC. Overexpression of miR-181a-5p significantly decreased CCAT1 expression in EC cells, whilst knockdown of CCAT1 significantly increased miR-181a-5p expression in EC cells. Furthermore, miR-181a-5p expression was significantly downregulated in EC tissue samples compared with matched adjacent healthy tissue samples from patients with endometrial cancer. Similarly, miR-181a-5p expression was significantly downregulated in several EC cell lines (KLE, Ishiwaka and HEC-1-A), compared with normal human endometrial stromal cell line T-HESC. In addition, rescue experiments demonstrated that inhibition of miR-181a-5p significantly reversed the effect of CCAT1 knockdown on EC cell proliferation and migration. The results suggest that CCAT1 promotes EC progression by acting as a molecular sponge of miR-181a-5p.
