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

purposeLong noncoding RNA (lncRNA) deregulation is frequent in human ovarian cancers (OCs), but the role of specific miRNAs involved in this disease remains elusive. LncRNA EMX2OS was previously reported to act as an oncogene in human cancers. However, their accurate expression, function and underlying mechanisms in OC are largely unclear. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe levels of EMX2OS in OC tissues and cell lines were determined by quantitative real-time PCR, and the function of EMX2OS was then analyzed both in vitro and in vivo. Luciferase assays and immunoprecipitation assays were performed to analyze the association between EMX2OS and miR-654 expression in OC cells.

resultsEMX2OS is overexpressed in human ovarian cancer tissues. Knockdown of EMX2OS reduced, while overexpression of EMX2OS enhanced the proliferation, invasion and sphere formation of OC cells. In addition, EMX2OS enhanced tumor growth in an in vivo xenograft model of human OC. We discovered that EMX2OS directly binds to miR-654 and suppresses its expression, thus leading to the upregulation of AKT3, which served as a direct target of miR-654. Moreover, miR-654 inhibited cell proliferation, invasion and sphere formation, and restoration of AKT3 reversed the effects of EMX2OS silencing or miR-654 overexpression. Furthermore, PD-L1 was identified as the key oncogenic component acting downstream of AKT3 in OC cells. Ectopic expression of PD-L1 reversed the anti-cancer functions by EMX2OS knockdown, AKT3 silencing or miR-654 upregulation in OC cells.

conclusionThese results demonstrated that the EMX2OS/miR-654/AKT3/PD-L1 axis confers aggressiveness in ovarian cancer and may represent a therapeutic target for OC metastasis.
