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 non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been widely confirmed to modulate many tumorigeneses, including NPC. However, the exact roles of cancer susceptibility candidate 9 (CASC9) in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and its underlying mechanisms have not been fully established.

methodsqRT-PCR was used to determine CASC9 and miR-145 expressions. Cell apoptosis, migration, and invasion were determined by flow cytometry and transwell assays, respectively. The protein expressions of BAX, Bcl-2, MMP 9, and MMP 2 were measured by western blot. The possible binding sites between miR-145 and CASC9 were predicted by the starBase v2.0 online database and verified by a luciferase report and an RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay. A xenograft tumor model was established to confirm the effects of CASC9 in NPC progression

resultsThe expression level of CASC9 was upregulated in NPC tissues and cells. The knockdown of CASC9 evidently suppressed migration and invasion but promoted apoptosis in NPC cells. In addition, the inhibition of CASC9 evidently increased the BAX protein level and inhibited the expression of the Bcl-2, MMP 9, and MPP2 proteins in NPC cells. Moreover, miR-145 was directly bound to CASC9, and its inhibition reversed the inhibitory effect of CASC9 knockdown on the progression of NPC. Furthermore, the expression of miR-145 was decreased and negatively associated with CASC9 in NPC tissues and cells. Also, the knockdown of CASC9 inhibited tumor growth

conclusionCASC9 knockdown inhibited cell migration and invasion but increased cell apoptosis in NPC cells by regulating miR-145, providing a novel insight for the treatment of NPC.
