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

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) were recently reported to be involved in the pathogenesis of ovarian cancer (OC); however, the molecular mechanisms of circRNAs in tumor progression and paclitaxel (PTX) resistance of OC remain largely undetermined. Here, we focused on circTNPO3 (hsa_circ_0001741), which is located on chromosome 7 (chr7): 128655032-128658211 and derived from TNPO3 gene, and thus we termed as circTNPO3. By microarray and qRT-PCR we identified circTNPO3 to be dramatically high expressed in OC samples and correlated with PTX resistance. Functionally, knockdown of circTNPO3 enhanced cell sensitivity to PTX via promoting PTX-induced apoptosis in vitro and in vivo. In mechanism, circTNPO3 acted as a sponge for microRNA-1299 (miR-1299), and NEK2 (NIMA-related kinase 2) was revealed to be target gene of miR-1299. Subsequently, functional assays illustrated that the oncogenic effects of circTNPO3 were attributed to the regulation of miR-1299/NEK2 axis. In conclusion, circTNPO3 contributed to PTX resistance of OC cells at least partly through upregulating NEK2 expression by sponging miR-1299. circTNPO3/miR-1299/NEK2 signaling pathway might play vital roles in the tumorigenesis and chemoresistance of OC.
