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 non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is characterized by biological function in diverse cancers. LncRNA KCNQ1 opposite strand/antisense transcript 1 (KCNQ1OT1) is well acknowledged to regulate various cancers, while its role in bladder cancer remains unclear. In the present study, we aimed at probing into the impact and detailed mechanisms of KCNQ1OT1 in bladder cancer progression. In this study, we demonstrated that KCNQ1OT1 expression in bladder cancer tissues was notably up-regulated compared with in normal adjacent tissues, and KCNQ1OT1 modulated the malignant phenotypes of bladder cancer cells. Moreover, it was validated that KCNQ1OT1 could specifically bind to miR-218-5p and reduce its expression. Overexpressed miR-218-5p would inhibit the proliferation and metastasis of bladder cancer cells while facilitating apoptosis. In terms of Mechanism, Heparan Sulfate-Glucosamine 3-Sulfotransferase 3B1 (HS3ST3B1) was validated as a target gene of miR-218-5p, and could be regulated by KCNQ1OT1 indirectly. In conclusion, KCNQ1OT1 can promote the progression of bladder cancer through regulation of miR-218-5p/HS3ST3B1, which is expected to serve as a new therapeutic target for bladder cancer.
