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 Thyroid cancer is a type of endocrine cancers with rapidly increased incidence. Recent studies have indicated long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) played crucial roles in thyroid cancer tumorigenesis and progression. However, the roles of most lncRNAs in thyroid cancer were still unclear. MATERIAL AND METHODS We used TCGA (The Cancer Genome Atlas), GSE50901, GSE29265, and GSE33630 datasets to analyze the expression pattern of ZFAS1 (ZNFX1 antisense RNA 1). The correlation between ZFAS1 and clinicopathological features in thyroid cancer was analyzed. Cell proliferation and cell cycle assays were used to validate the roles of ZFAS1 in thyroid cancer cell lines. DAVID (the database for annotation, visualization and integrated discover) system was used to perform GO (Gene Ontology) and KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) pathway analysis. The starBase datasets and Cytoscape was used to perform ceRNA (competitive endogenous RNA) network. RESULTS We demonstrated ZFAS1 was highly expressed in thyroid cancer compared to normal samples. Moreover, upregulation of ZFAS1 was positively correlated with clinicopathological features and poor prognosis in thyroid cancer. Functional validation showed knockdown of ZFAS1 suppressed cell proliferation and cell cycle in thyroid cancer cells. Bioinformatics analysis showed ZFAS1 was associated with translation, rRNA processing, intra-Golgi vesicle-mediated transport, ribosome, and ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis. CONCLUSIONS Our study suggested ZFAS1 could serve as a biomarker for thyroid cancer.
