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

backgroundAccruing evidences have pointed out that abnormal expression of circular RNAs (circRNAs) was closely related to the development of many malignancies. The present study intended to disclose the role of circRNA eukaryotic translation initiation factor 6 (circEIF6; hsa_circ_0060055) in pancreatic cancer progression.

methodsQuantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was conducted to determine the expression of circEIF6,

resultsCircEIF6 abundance was aberrantly up-regulated in pancreatic tumor tissues and cell lines. Cell proliferation, migration and invasion were significantly restrained while cell apoptosis was induced with the silencing of circEIF6 in pancreatic cancer cells. CircEIF6 silencing also hampered the activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT serine/threonine kinase (AKT) pathway. CircEIF6 bound to miR-557, and circEIF6 silencing elevated the expression of miR-557 in pancreatic cancer cells. MiR-557 knockdown partly overturned circEIF6 silencing-induced effects in pancreatic cancer cells.

conclusionCircEIF6 aggravated pancreatic cancer development through promoting cell proliferation, migration and invasion and suppressing cell apoptosis through targeting miR-557/
