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

backgroundLong non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) can play pivotal roles in tumor progression by acting as microRNA (miRNA) sponges. This study aimed to investigate the association of a novel lncRNA, TRPM2-AS, with the miR-138-5p/EGFR axis in the development of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

methodsSixty NSCLC tissues and paired adjacent non-tumor tissues were analyzed. The relative expression levels of TRPM2-AS, miR138-5p, and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and the interactions between them were analyzed. The NSCLC cell lines NCI-H1299 and A549 were transfected with TRPM2-AS shRNA/pcDNA, and miR-138-5p mimics. Cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis were examined in response to different transfection conditions. Dual-luciferase reporter assay was performed to identify the target interactions between TRPM2-AS, miR-138-5p, and EGFR. A549 cells stably transfected with shRNA were injected into BALB/c null nude mice to establish a tumor xenograft model.

resultsTRPM2-AS was up-regulated in NSCLC tumors and cell lines. Cell proliferation, migration, and invasion were inhibited in NSCLC cells treated with sh-TRPM2-AS, while apoptosis was induced. The targeting of TRPM2-AS by miR138-5p and miR138-5p by EGFR were validated with dual-luciferase reporter assay. TRPM2-AS was found to be negatively correlated with miR138-5p but positively correlated with EGFR. PI3K/AKT/mTOR was activated by pcDNA-EGFR but inactivated by miR-138-5p mimics. In the tumor xenograft mouse model, sh-TRPM2-AS suppressed tumor formation, reduced the expression of EGFR and Ki67, and promoted tumor cell apoptosis.

conclusionsOur results suggested that TRPM2-AS can increase the levels of EGFR via sponging miR-138-3p; this promoted NSCLC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion
