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 RNA (lncRNA) colon cancer-associated transcript-1 (CCAT1) has been reported to play important roles in the development and progression of multiple human malignancies. However, the functional role and molecular mechanism of CCAT1 on gefitinib resistance in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are largely unclear. The aim of this study is to explore the roles of CCAT1 on gefitinib resistance in NSCLC and to explore the underlying mechanisms. The quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis was to investigate the expression pattern of CCAT1 in gefitinib-resistant NSCLC patient tissues and cell lines, and then the effects of CCAT1 on gefitinib resistance of NSCLC in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, bioinformatics online program predictions and luciferase reporter assay were used to validate the association of CCAT1 and miR-218 in NSCLC cells. In this study, CCAT1 was observed to be upregulated in gefitinib-resistant patient tissues and cell lines. In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated that CCAT1 knockdown impaired cell proliferation and promoted the gefitinib-induced cell apoptosis. Furthermore, we demonstrated that CCAT1 acts as a sponge for miR-218, and verified that HOXA1 is a novel target of miR-218. These results suggest that CCAT1 may serve as a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) plus NSCLC patients.
