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

The long noncoding RNA HOTAIRM1 reportedly plays important roles in acute myeloid leukemia, gastric cancer and colorectal cancer. Here, we analyzed potential function of HOTAIRM1 in glioma and asked whether it participates in long-range chromatin interactions. We monitored expression of HOTAIRM1 in glioma tissues and correlated levels with patient survival using the TCGA dataset. HOTAIRM1 was highly expressed in glioma tissue, with high levels associated with shortened patient survival time. We then suppressed HOTAIRM1 activity in the human glioblastoma U251 line using CRISPR-cas9 to knock in a truncating polyA fragment. Reporter analysis of these and control cells confirmed that the HOTAIRM1 locus serves as an active enhancer. We then performed Capture-C analysis to identify target genes of that locus and applied RNA antisense purification to assess chromatin interactions between the HOTAIRM1 locus and HOXA cluster genes. HOTAIRM1 knockdown in glioma cells decreased proliferation and reduced expression of HOXA cluster genes. HOTAIRM1 regulates long-range interactions between the HOTAIRM1 locus and HOXA genes. Our work suggests a new mechanism by which HOTAIRM1 regulates glioma progression by regulating high-order chromatin structure and could suggest novel therapeutic targets to treat an intractable cancer.
