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

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are RNA sequences >200 nucleotides in length that have no protein-coding capacity. lncRNAs serve key roles in multiple biological processes, such as tumorigenesis and tumor progression. Taurine upregulated 1 (TUG1) is a novel lncRNA that has been associated with human cancer. TUG1 has attracted increasing attention in recent years and has been documented to be abnormally expressed in different types of cancer. Numerous studies indicate that TUG1 may be significantly associated with tumor development and cell metabolism by regulating cell proliferation, invasion, metastasis, apoptosis, differentiation and drug resistance. TUG1 exerts its function via recruiting specific RNA-binding proteins, promoting target gene expression, influencing tumor angiogenesis and by functioning as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA). An increasing number of studies have demonstrated that ceRNAs serve a role in cancer development. TUG1 is considered to be a biomarker or a novel therapeutic target for the diagnosis and prognosis of different cancer types. The present review focuses on recent developments in the major underlying molecular mechanisms of TUG1 in cancer, including its role in cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration, invasion and drug resistance. Also discussed in the present review is the current knowledge regarding the regulation of TUG1.
