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

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to be implicated in acetaminophen (APAP)-induced liver injury (AILI). We applied this study to investigate the role and functional mechanism of KCNQ1 overlapping transcript 1 (KCNQ1OT1) in AILI. The AILI model was established by APAP treatment in mice. The liver injury was preliminarily evaluated by ALT and AST activities via the detection kits. The quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was exploited for detecting the expression of KCNQ1OT1, microRNA-122-5p (miR-122-5p), and carboxylesterase 2 (CES2). Protein levels were analyzed via Western blot. 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-y1)-2, 5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, and flow cytometry were separately applied to determine cell proliferation and apoptosis rate. Inflammation was assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Dual-luciferase reporter assay was implemented to testify the intergenic combination. The function of KCNQ1OT1 in vivo was explored through KCNQ1OT1 knockdown in mice. APAP triggered the downregulation of KCNQ1OT1 and CES2 in mice serums. KCNQ1OT1 upregulation could relieve the AILI in HepaRG cells, which were abrogated by CES2 downregulation. KCNQ1OT1 served as a sponge of miR-122-5p and miR-122-5p directly targeted CES2. KCNQ1OT1 overexpression abated the AILI through the miR-122-5p/CES2 axis in HepaRG cells in vitro and mice in vivo. The collective results clarified that KCNQ1OT1 weakened the AILI in vitro and in vivo by the miR-122-5p/CES2 axis, providing an explicit molecular mechanism and selectable therapeutic strategy of AILI.
