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

backgroundCervical cancer (CC) is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in women worldwide, still lacking effective biomarkers and therapies for diagnosis and treatment. CircRNAs are a class of endogenous RNAs that regulate gene expression through interacting with miRNAs, implicating in the progression of cancers. Yet the roles of circRNAs in CC are not fully characterized.

methodsFifty pairs of tumor and adjacent normal tissues from CC patients, as well as four CC cell lines and a normal human cervical epithelial cell line were subjected to qRT-PCR assay to assess the mRNA levels of hsa_circ_0000069. CCK-8 and colony formation assays were conducted to detect the proliferation of CC cells. Transwell assay was used to evaluate the migration and invasion capabilities of CC cells. RNA pull-down and luciferase assays were used to determine the interaction between hsa_circ_0000069 and miR-873-5p. A xenograft model of CC was established to verify the in vivo function of hsa_circ_0000069 in CC progression.

resultsWe firstly demonstrated that hsa_circ_0000069 was significantly upregulated and closely related to the lymph node metastasis, and poor prognosis of CC patients. Besides, hsa_circ_0000069 promoted CC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. The knockdown of hsa_circ_0000069 also inhibited CC tumor growth in vivo. Mechanically, we revealed that hsa_circ_0000069 functioned as an oncogene in CC, which is the sponge of miR-873-5p to facilitate the TUSC3 expression, consequently promoting CC progression.

conclusionWe demonstrated a critical hsa_circ_0000069-miR-873-5p-TUSC3 function network involved in the CC progression, which provides mechanistic insights into the roles of CircRNAs in CC progression and a promising therapeutic target for CC treatment.
