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

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are reported to play vital roles in tumour process and might be potential prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for tumours. But the expression and function of circRNAs in glioma remain unclear. Here, we performed circRNA microarray analysis of glioma tissues and matched normal brain tissue samples to explore the circRNA profile in glioma. GO analysis, KEGG and Reactom pathway analysis of linear mRNA transcripts corresponding to circRNAs were performed to study the involved biological process and pathways. The clinical significance of the selected circRNA was investigated by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Relevant biological function, such as cell proliferation and metastasis, was detected in vitro and in vivo. And possible mechanism of the regulatory function of the selected circRNA in glioma was explored. We found that circCPA4 (hsa_circ_0082374) up-regulated the most in glioma tissues and high levels of circCPA4 were positively related to poor outcome of glioma. And knockdown of circCPA4 suppresses cell proliferation and metastasis in glioma. Moreover, circCPA4 interacts with let-7 and serves as a sponge for let-7. Through the competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) mechanism, circCPA4 sponges let-7 to regulate the expression of CPA4 and glioma progression. The circCPA4/let-7/CPA4 axis regulates glioma progression by ceRNA mechanism, and circCPA4 could be a novel prognostic biomarker and target for glioma treatment.
