KIF9-AS1 promotes nasopharyngeal carcinoma progression by suppressing miR-16.
Article in Oncology letters, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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 RNAs (lncRNAs) have been reported to serve a crucial role in the progression of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC); however, the underlying molecular mechanisms of lncRNA KIF9-AS1 in the tumorigenesis of NPC remains poorly understood. Reverse transcription-quantitative PCR was used to analyze the expression levels of KIF9-AS1 and microRNA (miR)-16, and Cell Counting Kit-8, wound healing and Transwell assays were used to determine the cell viability, invasion and migration, respectively, of NPC cells. In addition, a dual-luciferase reporter assay was used to analyze the direct interaction between KIF9-AS1 and miR-16. NPC stage was classified according to the seventh edition of the AJCC staging system. The results revealed that KIF9-AS1 expression levels were upregulated in NPC tissues and cell lines. In addition, miR-16 was demonstrated to directly interact with KIF9-AS1 and inhibit KIF9-AS1 expression levels, whereas the miR-16 inhibitor rescued the effects of the KIF9-AS1-knockdown in NPC cells. Furthermore, the expression levels of KIF9-AS1 were upregulated, while those of miR-16 were downregulated in NPC tissues. Notably, the expression levels of KIF9-AS1 were observed to be significantly more upregulated in advanced tumors (III-IV vs. I-II) and patients with high KIF9-AS1 expression levels exhibited a worse prognosis. In conclusion, the findings of the present study suggested that KIF9-AS1 may promote the progression of NPC by targeting miR-16, thus KIF9-AS1 may be a novel molecular target for NPC therapy.
