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) are reported to be aberrantly expressed and perform different functions in numerous types of tumor; however, their expression levels in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) remain largely unclear. Thus, the purpose of the present study was to investigate the function of circRNA_001937 in CSCC. Differential circRNA expression profiles of CSCC were analyzed using the Arraystar Human circRNAs chip and reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR (RT‑qPCR); and the effects of circRNA_001937 on cell behavior, in particular its regulation over the microRNA (miRNA)‑597‑3p/Fos‑related antigen 2 (FOSL2) pathway, was investigated using a dual‑luciferase reporter assay, and verified using RT‑qPCR and western blotting. circRNA_001937 expression levels were significantly increased in CSCC tissues and cell lines compared with the corresponding adjacent tissues and control cells (P<0.05). The genetic silencing of circRNA_001937 with small interfering RNA significantly inhibited cell proliferation, and induced cell apoptosis (P<0.05). circRNA_001937 was observed to directly bind to miRNA‑597‑3p and serve as a sponge, which indirectly increased the expression levels of FOSL2, a miRNA‑597‑3p target gene. In conclusion, circRNA_001937 expression was increased in CSCC and silencing circRNA_001937 gene expression may inhibit CSCC progression by sponging the miRNA‑597‑3p/FOSL2 pathway.
