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

objectiveThe aberrant expression of circular RNAs (circRNAs) is a frequent occurrence in various cancers. However, the functions and roles played by most circRNAs in colorectal cancer (CRC) remain largely unknown. MATERIALS AND

methodsLevels of circLMNB1 expression were evaluated by qRT-PCR and FISH assays. The influence of circLMNB1 knockdown on LoVo and HCT116 cell proliferation, cycling, apoptosis, migration, and invasion were assessed by the CCK-8, assay, Edu assay, flow cytometry, Hoechst staining, and the Transwell assay, respectively. The relative levels of EMT- and apoptosis-related proteins were determined by Western blotting.

resultsCircLMNB1 expression was significantly upregulated in CRC tissues and cells. Knockdown of circLMNB1 by siRNA in LoVo cells suppressed cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and facilitated cell cycle arrest and apoptosis In addition, we proved that knockdown of circLMNB1 upregulated E-cadherin, Bax and caspase-3 expression, and downregulated MMP2, MMP-9, and N-cadherin expression in LoVo cells. Further results showed that overexpression of circLMNB1 enhanced the malignant characteristics of HCT116 cells.

conclusionOur findings revealed that blocking of circLMNB1 could inhibit CRC development, and help to explain the underlying mechanism by which circLMNB1 knockdown inhibits the metastasis of CRC. Finally, this study suggests circLMNB1 as a novel biomarker for CRC.
