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) belong to noncoding RNAs and are widely expressed in a variety of cell species, including cancers. However, the function and mechanism of circRNAs in colorectal cancer (CRC) has not been well investigated. Here, we firstly downloaded and analyzed the circRNA expression profile of CRC from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. And we identified 181 differentially expressed circRNAs between 10 pairs of CRC and adjacent normal tissues. Interestingly, we observed that the expression of hsa_circRNA_000166 was the top increased among these circRNAs. Then, we confirmed an upregulation of hsa_circRNA_000166 in CRC tissues and cell lines and observed that higher expression of hsa_circRNA_000166 was associated with poor 5-year survival rate of patients with CRC. Next, we investigated the function of hsa_circRNA_000166 during CRC progression by knocking down its expression. Cell growth and apoptosis assay revealed that hsa_circRNA_000166 regulated the cell growth and apoptosis in CRC cell lines. Furthermore, we identified that hsa_circRNA_000166 targeted the miR-326/LASP1 pathway using bioinformatics analysis and luciferase reporter assay. Finally, suppression of miR-326 or overexpression of LASP1 could sufficiently rescue the aberrant cell growth and apoptosis in CRC cell lines. Taken together, our results indicated that downregulation of hsa_circRNA_000166 inhibited the cell growth and facilitated apoptosis during CRC development by sponging the miR-326/LASP1 pathway.
