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) have been confirmed to participate in cancer regulation, including oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of UASR1 in OSCC. The expression levels of UASR1, miR-375 and JAK2 were detected in OSCC tissues by reverse transcriptase quantitative PCR. The targets of UASR1 were predicted by IntaRNA. Colony formation and CCK-8 assays were conducted to estimate cell proliferation. Western blotting was used to detect the protein expression of JAK2. The results demonstrated that UASR1 was upregulated in OSCC tissues compared with non-tumor tissues, and the high level of UASR1 expression was associated with poor overall survival. UASR1 is predicted to interact with miR-375 and the interaction was confirmed by Dual-luciferase activity assay. However, overexpression of UASR1 and miR-375 did not affect the expression of each other. Instead, upregulation of JAK2, a target of miR-375, was observed after the overexpression of UASR1 in OSCC cells. Moreover, overexpression of UASR1 attenuated the inhibitory effects of miR-375 on the expression of JAK2 and cell proliferation. Therefore, UASR1 is overexpressed in OSCC and regulates cancer cell proliferation by regulating the miR-375/JAK2 axis.
