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 present study aimed to investigate the role of ZEB1-antisense RNA 1 (AS1) in diabetic lung (pneumonia with excluded causes other than diabetes). In the present study, the expression of ZEB1-AS1 in plasma was detected by performing reverse transcription-quantitative PCR. A receiver operating characteristic curve was used for diagnostic analysis. Lung cell apoptosis under the treatment of high glucose was analyzed by a cell apoptosis assay. p53 expression in lung cells was detected by performing western blotting. The present data demonstrated that ZEB1-AS1 was downregulated in the plasma of patients with diabetic lung (DL) compared with diabetic patients without complications (~1.6-fold) and healthy controls (~2.4-fold), and downregulation of ZEB1-AS1 distinguished patients with DL from healthy controls. ZEB1-AS1 in lung cells was downregulated by high glucose treatment, and overexpression of ZEB1-AS1 resulted in inhibited lung cancer cell apoptosis and downregulated p53. p53 overexpression attenuated the effects of ZEB1-AS1 overexpression on lung cell apoptosis. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that ZEB1-AS1 was downregulated in patients with DL and regulates lung cancer cell apoptosis by downregulating p53.
