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

backgroundEndometrial cancer (EC) is a common malignancy of the female reproductive system. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) were demonstrated to exert critical roles in cancers, including EC. This study aimed to investigate the effects of hsa_circRNA_0001776 (circ_0001776) on EC.

methodsReal-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) was used to measure circ_0001776, microRNA-182 (miR-182) and leucine-rich repeats and immunoglobulin-like domains 2 (LRIG2) expression. The diagnostic and prognostic values of circ_0001776 were identified by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis and survival analysis, respectively. RNase R digestion was used to characterize circ_0001776, and the localization of circ_0001776 was evaluated by cell fractionation assay. Then, cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8), colony formation, and flow cytometry analysis were used to detect cell proliferation and apoptosis, respectively. The real-time glycolytic rate (ECAR) and lactate production were measured by extracellular flux analysis and a lactate assay kit, respectively. Bioinformatics analysis and dual-luciferase reporter assay were used to determine the interaction among circ_0001776, miR-182 and LRIG2. The protein expression of LRIG2 was determined by western blot. Moreover, circ_0001776 overexpression vector was used to upregulate circ_0001776 expression in an animal tumor model.

resultsCirc_0001776 and LRIG2 were downregulated, while miR-182 was upregulated in EC tissues and cells. Low expression of circ_0001776 was correlated with the 5-year survival rate of EC patients. Upregulated circ_0001776 markedly attenuated cell proliferation and glycolysis, and enhanced cell apoptosis. Besides, circ_0001776 sponged miR-182 to regulate LRIG2 expression. Circ_0001776 could suppress EC progression by miR-182/LRIG2 axis. Furthermore, we also found that circ_0001776 significantly inhibited tumor growth in vivo.

conclusionOur results confirmed that circ_0001776 inhibited EC tumorigenesis and progression via miR-182/LRIG2 axis, providing a potential therapeutic target for EC.
