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

Accumulating evidences highlight the critical roles of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in a variety of cancers. LncRNA PXN-AS1-L was previously shown to exert oncogenic roles in hepatocellular carcinoma. However, the expression, role, and molecular mechanism of PXN-AS1-L in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) malignancy remain unknown. Here, we determined that PXN-AS1-L is upregulated in NPC tissues and cell lines. Increased expression of PXN-AS1-L predicts worse prognosis of NPC patients. PXN-AS1-L overexpression promotes NPC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro, and NPC tumor growth in vivo. PXN-AS1-L silencing suppresses NPC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro. Mechanistically, PXN-AS1-L directly interacts with SAPCD2 mRNA 3'-untranslated region, prevents the binding of microRNAs-AGO silencing complex to SAPCD2 mRNA, and upregulates the mRNA and protein level of SAPCD2. SAPCD2 is also increased in NPC tissues. The expression of SAPCD2 is significantly positively associated with that of PXN-AS1-L in NPC tissues. Gain-of-function and loss-of-function experiments demonstrated that SAPCD2 also promotes NPC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Furthermore, depletion of SAPCD2 significantly reverses the roles of PXN-AS1-L in promoting NPC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro, and NPC tumor growth in vivo. In conclusion, lncRNA PXN-AS1-L is upregulated in NPC and promoted NPC malignancy by upregulating SAPCD2 via direct RNA-RNA interaction.
