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

backgroundMany studies showed that long non-coding RNA MALAT1 is served as an oncogene. However, the specific role of MALAT1 in gastric cancer is not fully elucidated. The aim of this study is to elucidate the regulatory effects of MALAT1 on tumor development and cisplatin resistance in gastric cancer.

methodsTCGA database was applied to investigate the expression levels of MALAT1 in GC tissues and normal gastric tissues and its correlation with GC patients' survival. Univariate and multivariate analysis were performed to investigate whether MALAT1 expression is an independent risk for overall survival of gastric cancer patients. The expression of MALAT1 was detected by Quantitative real-time PCR. After knockdown or overexpression of MALAT1, the cellular functions of GC cells were detected by cell-proliferation, flow cytometry, transwell assay and colony formation assays, respectively. Western blot analysis was performed to detect the protein levels of Bcl-2 and key genes in the PI3K/AKT pathway in GC cells. Finally, CCK-8 assay was performed to explore the effect of MALAT1 on cisplatin resistance of GC cells.

resultsHigher expression of MALAT1 was detected in GC tissues than that of adjacent normal tissues, high MALAT1 expression is an independent risk for overall survival of gastric cancer patients. Knockdown of MALAT1 inhibited proliferation, migration and invasion of GC cells, while overexpression of MALAT1 Overexpression of MALAT1 yielded opposite results. Western blot results showed that protein expressions of p-PI3K, p-AKT and p-STAT3 were downregulated after MALAT1 knockdown in GC cells, while these proteins were upregulated after MALAT1 overexpression. Additionally, the IC

conclusionWe demonstrated that MALAT1 is highly expressed in GC, high MALAT1 expression is an independent risk factor for OS among GC patients. Moreover, MALAT1 promotes malignant progression of GC and contributes to cisplatin resistance of GC cells, indicating MALAT1 may serve as a biological hallmark for predicting the prognosis of GC.
