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

Recently, growing evidence has shown that aberrant long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) expression in conjunction with an impaired trophoblastic phenotype could implicate the pathological process of pre-eclampsia (PE). However, only a small portion of lncRNAs has been characterized with regard to the function and molecular mechanisms involved in PE. There are still gaps in the available knowledge; as a result, there are currently only a few applicable treatments for PE in the context of lncRNA. Here, we found that lncRNA AGAP2-AS1 is abnormally down-regulated in severe PE placenta tissues. Using human trophoblasts, we established that AGAP2-AS1 knockdown could inhibit trophoblasts proliferation and invasion and promote cell apoptosis. Further, we showed that overexpression of AGAP2-AS1 substantially stimulated the development of the trophoblastic phenotype. Through high-throughput sequencing analysis, we demonstrated that silencing of AGAP2-AS1 favourably regulated various genes which are relevant to trophoblastic growth and invasion. Mechanistically, AGAP2-AS1 promoted the suppressor protein, Jun dimerization protein 2 (JDP2), by sponging miR-574-5p. Resultantly, further impairment of the trophoblastic phenotype was achieved by way of inhibiting cell growth, apoptosis and invasion. We also determined that the expression of AGAP2-AS1 could be mediated by FOXP1. Our results showed that the down-regulated expression of lncRNA AGAP2-AS1 might serve as a key suppressor in PE via inhibition of JDP2 at the post-transcriptional level by competing for miR-574; thus, this presents a novel therapeutic strategy for PE.
