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

backgroundLong noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are vital mediators in human cancers including pituitary neuroendocrine tumor (PitNET) and could function as competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) of microRNAs (miRNAs). The main objective of this study is to identify effect of lncRNA X-inactive specific transcript (XIST) and microRNA-424-5p (miR-424-5p) on PitNET.

methodsMicroarray analysis was employed to identify the PitNET-related differentially expressed lncRNAs. PitNET tissues, including both invasive and non-invasive subtypes in parallel with normal pituitary tissues were collected for the determination of the expression of XIST, miR-424-5p and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and the interaction among them. Subsequently, the expression of XIST, miR-424-5p and bFGF in PitNET cells was altered to elucidate their biological significance in the aspects of proliferation, migration, invasion, and the apoptosis.

resultsBoth XIST and bFGF exhibited high expression, but miR-424-5p had a low expression in invasive PitNET tissues as compared to non-invasive PitNET normal pituitary tissues. Additionally, XIST competitively bound to miR-424-5p to elevate the expression of bFGF. Furthermore, depleted XIST or bFGF, or elevated miR-424-5p was revealed to suppress the proliferation, migration, invasion, and promote cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of invasive PitNET cells. miR-424-5p repressed the proliferation, migration, invasion of invasive PitNET cells by targeting bFGF.

conclusionIn conclusion, the fundamental findings of the present study suggested that the functional suppression of XIST downregulated bFGF to inhibit the development of PitNET by increasing miR-424-5p expression, proposing XIST as a novel therapeutic target for PitNET.
