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

backgroundHepatoblastoma is the most common liver malignancy in children. The long noncoding RNA (IncRNA) PVT1 plays oncogenic roles in human cancers; however, its regulation and function in hepatoblastoma remain poorly understood. PURPOSE: This study was designed to investigate the regulation and function of PVT1 in hepatoblastoma.

methodsPVT1 expression was compared between human hepatoblastoma tissues and adjacent non-tumor tissues, and then analyzed using Kaplan-Meier method. The proliferation of hepatoblastoma cells was determined by BrdU incorporation assay. The tumor xenograft model was used to assess tumor proliferation in vivo. The gene expression level was measured by qRT-pCR, Western blot and immunohistochemistry analyses.

resultsCompared with normal counterparts, PVT1 is upregulated in human hepatoblastoma tissues as well as in hepatoblastoma cell lines. Additionally, PVT1 promotes the proliferation of hepatoblastoma cells in vitro and accelerates tumor growth in xenograft model in vivo. Mechanistically, PVT1 promotes the activation of the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), which leads to the transcriptional activation of downstream targets involved in cell cycle progression, and moreover,STAT3 inhibition with the selective inhibitor stattic abolishes PVT1 pro-proliferative role in hepatoblastoma cells.

conclusionPVT1 promotes hepatoblastoma cell proliferation through activating STAT3-induced cell cycle progression, which may implicate PVT1 as a potential therapeutic target for hepatoblastoma treatment.
