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

Previous studies have demonstrated that long non‑coding RNA (lncRNA) is involved in vascular remodeling. The metastasis‑associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) lncRNA is associated with the proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle and endothelial cells; however, its biological role in pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH) is currently unclear. The aim of the present study was to investigate the post‑transcriptional regulation of MALAT1 in human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (HPASMCs). The results revealed that MALAT1 expression levels were significantly upregulated in the pulmonary arteries (PAs) and HPASMCs obtained from patients with PAH compared with adjacent normal PA tissues and HPASMCs. Knockdown of MALAT1 suppressed the viability and proliferation of HPASMCs and prevented cells entering the G0/G1 cell cycle phase. MALAT1 overexpression exerted the opposite effects. Bioinformatics analysis predicted complementary binding of hsa‑microRNA (miR)‑124‑3p.1 with the 3'‑untranslated region of MALAT1. Luciferase reporter assays and RNA immunoprecipitation experiments demonstrated molecular binding between MALAT1 and hsa‑miR‑124‑3p.1. This resulted in the formation of an RNA‑induced silencing complex. In addition, Kruppel‑like factor 5 (KLF5) was confirmed to be a target gene of MALAT1/hsa‑miR‑124‑3p.1. MALAT1 silencing did not inhibit the proliferation and migration of HPASMCs following knockdown of hsa‑miR‑124‑3p.1. In addition, MALAT1 knockdown was demonstrated to attenuate the expression of KLF5. Following MALAT1 knockdown, the expression level of KLF5 was rescued by inhibition of hsa‑miR‑124‑3p.1 expression. The results of the current study indicate that the MALAT1/hsa‑miR‑124‑3p.1/KLF5 axis may serve a key role in HPASMCs. In addition, the results contribute to what is known regarding the role of MALAT1 in PAH development and provide a novel theoretical basis for the development of new therapeutic interventions for patients with PAH.
