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

Liver cancer ranks in the top 10 most common malignancies for both mortality rate and incidence worldwide. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common subtype of liver cancer. It has been reported that long non-coding RNA GABPB1 intronic transcript 1 (IT1) is downregulated in lung cancer and predicts poor survival. However, its role in live cancer remains unclear. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the role of GABPB1-IT1 in HCC. A total of 64 patients with HCC (40 males and 24 females; range, 43-67 years old; mean age=55.1±5.1 years) were enrolled at the 96604 Military Hospital of the Chinese People's Liberation Army between May 2012 and May 2014. The expression levels of GABPB1-IT1 and microRNA (miR)-93 in tumor and adjacent normal tissues were measured using quantitative PCR. A dual luciferase activity assay was performed to analyze the interaction between miR-93 and GABPB1-IT1. A Cell Counting Kit-8 assay was used to analyze the effect of miR transfection on the proliferation of SNU-398 cells. It was demonstrated that GABPB1-IT1 can interact with miR-93 in HCC cells, while overexpression of GABPB1-IT1 and miR-93 in HCC cells did not affect the expression of each other. GABPB1-IT1 was downregulated in HCC tissues compared with paired non-tumor tissues and predicted poor survival. Notably, overexpression of GABPB1-IT1 in HCC cells led to upregulation of pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF), a target of miR-93. In addition, overexpression of GABPB1-IT1 reduced the enhancing effects of miR-93 on HCC cell proliferation. Therefore, GABPB1-IT1 may upregulate PEDF through miR-93 to suppress cell proliferation in HCC.
