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

Recent studies have suggested that lincRNA-ROR is involved in the tumorigenesis of different types of cancers. However, the role of lincRNA-ROR in retinoblastoma has not been determined. We investigated lincRNA-ROR levels in 58 retinoblastoma and adjacent non-tumor tissues by quantitative reverse transcription PCR. Recurrence-free survival was analyzed using Cox regression analyses. Cell migration and invasion abilities were detected by wound-healing, Transwell invasion, and bioluminescence imaging assays. Western blotting was performed to detect epithelial-mesenchymal transition markers. Interactions between lincRNA-ROR, miR-32-5p, and Notch1 were confirmed by Luciferase, RNA pull-down, and RIP assays. Histone acetylation was detected by chromatin immunoprecipitation assays. We showed that lincRNA-ROR was significantly upregulated in retinoblastoma tissues, and overexpression of lincRNA-ROR was significantly correlated with optic nerve invasion, nodal or distant metastasis, and recurrence. We also showed that lincRNA-ROR is a critical promoter of retinoblastoma cell metastasis, both in vivo and in vitro. Further, we demonstrated that lincRNA-ROR activates the Notch signaling pathway by acting as a sponge of miR-32-5p. Upregulation of lincRNA-ROR was attributed to the CBP-mediated H3K27 acetylation at the promoter region. Our results reveal a potential competing endogenous RNA regulatory pathway, in which lincRNA-ROR modulates the epithelial-mesenchymal transition program by competitively binding to endogenous miR-32-5p and regulating Notch signaling pathway activity in retinoblastoma cells, which may provide new insights into novel molecular therapeutic targets for retinoblastoma.
