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

backgroundThe involvement of lncRNA CASC15 in several types of cancers has been reported, while its role in tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) is unknown. Our study aimed to investigate the clinical potentials of lncRNA CASC15 in TSCC.

methodsThe expression of CASC15 and miR-124 in tissue samples from TSCC patients and TSCC cell lines was analyzed by qPCR. Overexpression experiments were performed to analyze the interactions between CASC15 and miR-124. Survival analysis was performed to analyze the prognostic values of CASC15 and miR-124 for TSCC. Transwell assays were performed to analyze cell invasion and migration.

resultsWe found that CASC15 was upregulated, while miR-124 was downregulated in TSCC tissues than in non-cancer tissues of TSCC patients. CASC15 and miR-125 expression was not significantly different among patients with different clinical stages, and patients with high level of CASC15 and low level of miR-125 showed low overall survival rate. CASC15 and miR-124 were inversely correlated in TSCC tissues, and CASC15 overexpression in TSCC cells resulted in downregulation of miR-124. In contrast, overexpression of miR-124 showed no significant effect on CASC15 expression. CASC15 overexpression resulted in the increased, while miR-124 overexpression resulted in the decreased migration and invasion rates of TSCC cells.

conclusionCASC15 and miR-124 predict TSCC patients' survival and CASC15 may downregulate miR-124 to inhibit TSCC cell migration and invasion. The study was approved by Ethics Committee of The first Affiliated Hospital of Jinzhou Medical University (20103548FAHJMU).
