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) play vital roles in the metastasis and invasion of cancer cells. Systematic analysis of ovarian cancer (OvCa) expression profiles suggests that deregulation of lncRNA AC004988.1, designated promoting transition-associated lncRNA (PTAL), is involved in OvCa progression. However, the underlying mechanism of PTAL in OvCa remains unknown. In this study, we showed that PTAL was significantly upregulated in mesenchymal subtype samples compared with epithelial subtype samples from TCGA serous OvCa datasets. PTAL expression was positively correlated with the expression of fibronectin1 (FN1), whereas PTAL and FN1 were negatively correlated with miR-101 expression in the mesenchymal OvCa samples. In addition, knockdown of PTAL inhibited cell migration and invasion and blunted the progression of metastasis
