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

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in various diseases, but the effect of lncRNA CASC9 on spinal cord injury (SCI) remains unclear. Therefore, the present study was conducted to explore the role of this lncRNA in SCI. SCI model was established by laminectomy in rats in vivo or induced by LPS in PC12 cells in vitro. Methylprednisolone (MP) was used for treatment in vivo. Spinal cord tissues were stained with H&E, and the oxidative stress- and inflammation-related factors were detected using their commercial kits. Cell apoptosis was determined using flow cytometry assay. Relative expression of corresponding genes was measured using qRT-PCR and western blotting. Luciferase reporter assay was used to verify binding site between CASC9 and miR-383-5p, as well as miR-383-5p and LDHA. The results showed that lncRNA CASC9 was downregulated and miR-383-5p was upregulated in SCI rats and LPS-induced PC12 cells. Severe histological injury and increased water content were also found in SCI rats. Increased levels of LDH, MDA, lactic acid, TNF-α, and IL-1β were found in SCI rats and LPS-induced PC12 cells. These changes could be reversed by MP treatment in vivo or overexpression of CASC9 in vitro. Besides, overexpression of CASC9 decreased cell apoptosis and protein expression of LDHA and increased protein expression of Nrf2 and HO-1 in LPS-induced PC12 cells. Furthermore, miR-383-5p was a direct target of CASC9 and was negatively regulated by CASC9. LDHA was a direct target of miR-383-5p and was negatively regulated by CASC9. In conclusion, lncRNA CASC9 exerted a protective role against oxidative stress, inflammation, and cell apoptosis in SCI, providing a novel therapeutic target or prognostic factor for SCI.
