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

objectivesRecent studies have revealed that circular RNA (circRNA) plays a pivotal role in cancer development. The study aimed to investigate the role of circ_0081146 in gastric cancer (GC).

resultsCirc_0081146 was upregulated in GC tissues and cells. Patients with high expression of circ_0081146 had a significantly reduced 5-year overall survival rate. Circ_0081146 knockdown restrained the growth, migration and invasion of GC cells in vitro as well as tumorigenesis in vivo. Circ_0081146 targeted miR-144 and HMGB1 was targeted by miR-144. Circ_0081146 was negatively correlated with miR-144 expression, while positively correlated with HMGB1 expression in GC tissues. Moreover, the inhibitory effect of circ_0081146 knockdown on the progression of GC cells were reversed by silencing miR-144 or HMGB1 overexpression. Mechanically, circ_0081146 increased HMGB1 expression by targeting miR-144.

conclusionCirc_0081146 functions as an oncogene in GC to promote cell growth, migration and invasion via modulating the miR-144/HMGB1 axis.
