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

backgroundIncreasing studies have revealed that circular RNAs (CircRNAs) make great contributions to regulating tumor progression. Therefore, we intended to explore the expression characteristics, function, and related mechanisms of a novel type of circRNA, PIP5K1A, in glioma.

methodsFirstly, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was carried out to examine CircPIP5K1A expression in glioma tissues and adjacent normal tissues, and the correlation between CircPIP5K1A level and the clinical-pathological indicators of glioma was analyzed. Then, the CircPIP5K1A expression in various glioma cell lines was detected, and CircPIP5K1A overexpression and knockdown cell models were constructed. Subsequently, cell proliferation and viability were detected by the CCK8 method and BrdU staining. Cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry, and cell invasion was examined by Transwell assay. The expression of TCF12, PI3K/AKT pathway apoptotic related proteins (Caspase3, Bax, and Bcl2) and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) markers (E-cadherin, Vimentin, and N-cadherin) was determined by western blot or RT-PCR.

resultsThe results manifested that CircPIP5K1A was upregulated in glioma tissues (compared with that in normal adjacent tissues), and overexpressed CircPIP5K1A was related to glioma volume and histopathological grade. Functionally, overexpressing CircPIP5K1A notably elevated glioma cell proliferation, invasion, and EMT and inhibited apoptosis both in vivo and in vitro. Besides, CircPIP5K1A upregulated TCF12 and PI3K/AKT activation. Bioinformatics analysis testified that miR-515-5p was a common target of CircPIP5K1A and TCF12, while the dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) experiment further confirmed that CircPIP5K1A targeted miR-515-5p, which bound the 3'-untranslated region (UTR) of TCF12.

conclusionsOverall, the study illustrated that CircPIP5K1A is a potential prognostic marker in glioma and regulates glioma evolvement by modulating the miR-515-5p-mediated TCF12/PI3K/AKT axis.
