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

Circular RNA hsa_circ_0000117 is reportedly increased in Gastric cancer (GC), however, its role is unexplored. Hsa_circ_0000117 expression and function in GC was investigated using standard cell phenotypic and expression assays. Pull-down and luciferase reporter assays also elucidated hsa_circ_0000117 mechanisms. In the present study, we observed increased hsa_circ_0000117 and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) expression, while microRNA-337-3p (miR-337-3p) was decreased in GC cells. Depleted hsa_circ_0000117 decreased GC proliferation and invasion. Hsa_circ_0000117 was also identified as a miR-337-3p sponge. Also, STAT3 was identified as a miR-337-3p target. Similarly, rescue assays indicated STAT3 overexpression (or miR-337-3p inhibition) reversed hsa_circ_0000117 effects in GC progression. Thus, our data suggested hsa_circ_0000117 exhibited oncogene properties in combination with the hsa_circ_0000117/miR-337-3p/STAT3 axis in GC, potentially providing a new therapeutic target for GC.
