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

backgroundGlioma is a heterogeneous aggressive tumor. Ropivacaine, a widely used anesthetic, has been shown to repress the progression of multiple cancers, including glioma. In this study, the effects of ropivacaine on cell proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis in glioma were revealed.

methodsThe expression levels of circSCAF11 and miR-145-5p were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) in glioma tissues and cells. The expression levels of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related proteins were determined by Western blot. Oxidative stress was evaluated by the measurement of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and determination of mitochondrial 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) assay in glioma cells. Cell proliferation was determined by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and cell colony formation assay. Cell apoptosis and metastasis were detected by flow cytometry analysis and transwell assay, respectively. The binding relationship between circSCAF11 and miR-145-5p was predicted by circular RNA Interactome and identified by dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation assay. In vivo tumor formation assay was performed to reveal the effects between ropivacaine and circSCAF11 overexpression on tumorigenesis in vivo.

resultsCircSCAF11 expression was obviously upregulated and miR-145-5p was significantly downregulated in glioma tissues and cells compared with control groups. Ropivacaine treatment upregulated E-cadherin protein expression and repressed the protein expression of Vimentin. Functionally, ropivacaine exposure promoted ROS and 8-OHdG production and cell apoptosis, whereas inhibited cell proliferation, migration and invasion; however, these effects were hindered by circSCAF11 overexpression. Mechanistically, circSCAF11 was a sponge of miR-145-5p. In addition, ropivacaine was revealed to inhibit tumor growth in vivo by regulating circSCAF11 and miR-145-5p expression.

conclusionRopivacaine suppressed glioma progression by regulating circSCAF11 and miR-145-5p, which might provide a theoretical foundation in glioma treatment.
