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

Neuronal apoptosis is the main pathological feature of spinal cord injury (SCI), while autophagy contributes to ameliorating neuronal damage via inhibition of apoptosis. Here, we investigated the role of tectonic family member 2 (TCTN2) long non-coding RNA on apoptosis and autophagy in SCI. TCTN2 was down-regulated in the spinal cord tissues of a rat model of SCI and in oxygen-glucose deprivation-induced hypoxic SY-SH-5Y cells, while microRNA-216b (miR-216b) was up-regulated. Overexpression of TCTN2 reduced neuron apoptosis by inducing autophagy, and TCTN2 was observed to negatively regulate miR-216b. Furthermore, TCTN2 promoted autophagy to repress apoptosis through the miR-216b-Beclin-1 pathway, and overexpression of TCTN2 improved neurological function in the SCI rat model. In summary, our data suggest that TCTN2 enhances autophagy by targeting the miR-216b-Beclin-1 pathway, thereby ameliorating neuronal apoptosis and relieving spinal cord injury.
