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

The biological roles of the newly identified long non-coding RNA family with sequence similarity 83 member H antisense 1 (FAM83H-AS1) in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) have remained largely elusive. In the present study, it was determined that, in comparison with paired para-tumorous tissues or normal esophageal epithelial cells, FAM83H-AS1 expression in cancer tissues and cell lines was markedly upregulated. Furthermore, FAM83H-AS1 expression was significantly elevated in patients with ESCC and lymph node metastasis or a late TNM stage, while no association with any other clinicopathological characteristics was detected. Furthermore, the overall and disease-free survival, as assessed by the Kaplan-Meier method, were significantly shortened in patients with high FAM83H-AS1 expression. A functional study then uncovered that knockdown of FAM83H-AS1 significantly suppressed the proliferation and migration of ESCC cells. The present results suggested that FAM83H-AS1 may facilitate the malignant progression of ESCC and may be utilized as a prognostic predictor and possibly a novel therapeutic target in ESCC that warrants further exploration.
