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

Melanoma is an aggressive malignant tumor. The crucial role of circular RNAs has been documented in many types of cancer, including melanoma. The objective of this study was to uncover the function of circ_0084043 in the biological process of melanoma and associated mechanism of action. The expression of circ_0084043, miR-31, and Krüppel-like factor 3 (KLF3) was determined by qRT-PCR. Cell proliferation and apoptosis were monitored by the MTT assay and flow cytometry assay, respectively. The progression of glycolysis was evaluated according to the levels of glucose consumption, lactate production, and ATP concentration using appropriate detection kits. The relationship between miR-31 and circ_0084043 or KLF3 was predicted by the bioinformatics tool and ascertained by the dual-luciferase reporter assay. The protein levels of KLF3 and glucose transporter 1 (Glut1) were quantified by western blot. A xenograft model was established to ascertain the role of circ_0084043
