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

backgroundInfantile hemangioma (IH) is the most common benign tumor in children. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a critical role in tumorigenesis. However, the expression levels and biological functions of lncRNAs in IH have not been well-studied. This study aimed to analyze the expression profile of lncRNAs and mRNAs in proliferating and involuting IHs.

methodsThe expression profiles of lncRNAs and mRNAs in proliferating and involuting IHs were identified by microarray analysis. Subsequently, detailed bioinformatics analyses were performed. Finally, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) analyses were conducted to validate the microarray results.

resultsIn total, 146 differentially expressed (DE) lncRNAs and 374 DE mRNAs were identified. The DE mRNAs were enriched mostly in angiogenesis-related biological processes (BPs) and pathways by bioinformatics analysis. In addition, metabolism-related BPs (e.g., "glycogen biosynthetic process" and "metabolic process") and pathways (e.g., "oxidative phosphorylation") were identified. A lncRNA-mRNA co-expression network was constructed from 42 DE lncRNAs and 217 DE mRNAs. Twelve lncRNAs were predicted to have cis-regulated target genes. The microarray analysis results were validated by qRT-PCR using 5 randomly selected lncRNAs and 13 mRNAs. The IHC results revealed that both LOXL2 and FPK-1 exhibited higher protein expression levels in proliferating IH than in involuting IH. Moreover, inhibition of PFK-1 could suppress hemangioma-derived endothelial cell proliferation and migration, induce cell arrest, and reduce glucose uptake and lactate and ATP production.

conclusionsThe findings suggest that the identified DE lncRNAs and mRNAs may be associated with the pathogenesis of IH. The data presented herein can improve our understanding of IH development and provide direction for further studies investigating the mechanism underlying IH.
