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 noncoding RNAs play essential roles in colon cancer tumorigenesis. This study aimed to explore the potential function and molecular mechanisms of LINC00961 in colon cancer. qPCR results showed that LINC00961 was downregulated in colon cancer cells and tissues. Functional assays demonstrated that LINC00961 suppressed the migration and invasion of colon cancer cells in vitro. LINC00961 functioned as an endogenous sponge for miR-223-3p in colon cancer cells. SOX11 was confirmed as a target gene of miR-223-3p. The effect of miR-223-3p on colon cancer cells was then investigated. MiR-223-3p inhibition enhanced their migration and invasion. The effect of SOX11 on colon cancer cells was studied. SOX11 overexpression inhibited the invasion of colon cancer cells. LINC00961 acted as an anti-oncogene and upregulated SOX11 expression by functioning as a miR-223-3p sponge. This research revealed the molecular mechanism of LINC00961 in colon cancer. LINC00961 might act as a potential diagnostic biomarker and therapeutic target for further clinical treatments.
