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

PDZK1 downregulation was reported to independently predict poor prognosis of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) patients and induce ccRCC development and progression. However, the underlying mechanism of PDZK1 downregulation remains unknown. Competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks are emerging as new players in gene regulation and are associated with cancer development. ceRNAs regulate other RNA transcripts by competing for shared miRNAs. To investigate the role and mechanism of ceRNAs in PDZK1 downregulation and the development of ccRCC, we searched databases for miRNAs and lncRNAs that regulate PDZK1 expression in ccRCC tissues and assessed their effects in ccRCC. We found that miR-15b was expressed at higher levels in ccRCC tissues, and its upregulation was clinically associated with lower PDZK1 level, larger tumor size and shorter survival time of ccRCC patients. Conversely, a novel lncRNA (lncPENG) was expressed at a lower level in ccRCC tissues, and its downregulation was associated with the same effects as upregulation of miR-15b. Downregulation of miR-15b and upregulation of lncPENG resulted in a significant increase in PDZK1 level and inhibition of proliferation in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, lncPENG directly bound to miR-15b and effectively functioned as a sponge for miR-15b to modulate the expression of PDZK1. Thus, lncPENG may function as a ceRNA to attenuate miR-15b-dependent PDZK1 downregulation and inhibit cell proliferation, suggesting that it may be clinically valuable as a therapeutic target and a prognostic biomarker of ccRCC.
