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

backgroundCircular RNAs (circRNAs) have been shown to interact with microRNAs (miRNA) as competitive endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) to regulate target gene expression and participate in tumorigenesis. However, the role of circRNA-mediated ceRNAs in bladder cancer (BC) remains unknown. Accordingly, the aim of this study was to elucidate the regulatory mechanisms in BC based on construction of the ceRNA network.

methodsThe RNA expression profiles were obtained from public datasets in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, and were used to establish a circRNA-miRNA-mRNA network. The interactions among proteins were analyzed using the STRING database and hubgenes were extracted using the cytoHubba application. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analyses of differentially expressed mRNAs in BC and normal tissue samples were performed to determine the functions of the intersecting mRNAs.

resultsA total of 27 circRNAs, 76 miRNAs, and 4744 mRNAs were found to be differentially expressed between BC and normal tissues. The circRNA-miRNA-mRNA ceRNA network was established based on 21 circRNAs, 14 miRNAs, and 150 mRNAs differentially expressed in BC. We also established a protein-protein interaction network and identified 10 hubgenes, which were used to construct circRNA-miRNA-hubgene regulatory modules. The most enriched biological process GO term was strand displacement (P<0.05), and the homologous recombination and Fanconi anemia pathways were significantly enriched (P<0.05) for the differentially expressed genes in BC.

conclusionsWe screened several dysregulated circRNAs and established a circRNA-associated ceRNA network by bioinformatics analysis. The identified ceRNAs are likely critical in the pathogenesis of BC and may serve as future therapeutic biomarkers.
