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

backgroundHypoxic tumors are refractory to DNA damage drugs. However, the underlying mechanism has yet to be elucidated. We aimed to identify lncRNAs that upregulated under hypoxia and their effects on colorectal cancer (CRC).

methodsCRC cells were treated with 1% O

resultsWe identified a hypoxia-induced lncRNA LUCAT1 that facilitated the growth of CRC cells and contributed to drug resistance of CRC cells both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanically, LUCAT1 interacts with polypyrimidine tract binding protein 1 (PTBP1) in CRC cells, facilitates the association of a set of DNA damage related genes with PTBP1, thus resulting in altered alternative splicing of these genes. Moreover, ectopic expression of PTBP1 in CRC cells with knockdown of LUCAT1 abrogated the effects induced by LUCAT1 knockdown. Chemotherapeutics drug combined with LUCAT1 knockdown via antisense oligonucleotides (ASO) would get a better outcome in vivo, compared with group treated with chemotherapeutic drug only. Notably, LUCAT1 is upregulated in CRC tissues, compared to adjacent normal tissues; and CRC patients with higher LUCAT1 have a worse prognosis and poorly responded to chemotherapy in the clinic.

conclusionsOur data suggested CRC cells utilizes LUCAT1 to develop resistance to DNA damage drugs, and disrupting the LUCAT1/PTBP1 axis might be a promising therapeutic strategy for refractory hypoxic tumors.
