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

backgroundLung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is known to be one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths globally. In recent decades, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been indicated to exert pivotal regulating functions in multiple biological behaviors in the initiation and development of LUAD. However, the functional mechanism of lncRNA GATA binding protein 6 antisense RNA 1 (GATA6-AS1) in LUAD has not been explored.

methodsIn the current study, GATA6-AS1 expression in LUAD tissues was revealed. Meanwhile, GATA6-AS1 expression in LUAD cells was investigated via RT-qPCR analysis. After A549 and H1975 cells were transfected with GATA6-AS1 overexpression plasmids, EdU and colony formation assays, TUNEL assays and flow cytometry analyses, as well as wound healing and Transwell assays were conducted to detect cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion. Afterwards, bioinformatic tools, western blot analyses, dual-luciferase reporter assays, and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assays were performed to investigate the correlation of microRNA-4530 (miR-4530), GATA6-AS1 and GATA6.

resultsWe found that GATA6-AS1 expression was low-expressed in LUAD tissues and cells. Furthermore, the upregulation of GATA6-AS1 suppressed the proliferative, migration and invasion abilities, as well as promoted apoptotic rate of A549 and H1975 cells. Moreover, the mechanistic investigations revealed that GATA6-AS1 upregulated the expression of its cognate sense gene GATA6 by binding with miR-4530, thereby modulating the malignant progression of LUAD cells.

conclusionsGATA6-AS1 repressed LUAD cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and promoted cell apoptosis via regulation of the miR-4530/GATA6 axis, indicating GATA6-AS1 as a new prognostic biomarker for LUAD.
