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

introductionNSCLC (non-small cell lung cancer), the most common type of human cancer, is a main cause of cancer-associated mortality. Accumulating evidence has confirmed that long non-coding RNAs serve crucial roles in NSCLC development.

methodsThe PCAT18 expression in NSCLC tissues and cell lines were evaluated by reverse transcription-quantitative PCR. Cell Counting Kit-8 assays, colony formation study, wound healing assays and transwell invasion assays, and tumor xenograft experiments were performed to investigate the biological functions of PCAT18 in NSCLC. Luciferase reporter, RNA-binding protein immunoprecipitation (RIP) and RNA pull-down assays were further used to explore the association between PCAT18 and miR-4319.

resultsPCAT18 expression was up-regulated in NSCLC tissues and cell lines. Furthermore, PCAT18 silencing inhibited NSCLC cell proliferation, migration and invasion, while co-transfection with a miR-4319 inhibitor reversed these biological effects, and miR-4319 inhibited NSCLC growth in vivo. Additionally, PCAT18 silencing promoted NSCLC cell apoptosis and induced G1 stage arrest. Moreover, luciferase reporter assays illustrated that PCAT18 regulated miR-4319 directly, and a RIP assay and RNA pull-down analysis further demonstrated that miR-4319 inhibited PCAT18 in a RNA-induced silencing complex-dependent manner. Finally, PCAT18 silencing impaired the growth of NSCLC in vivo.

conclusionIn conclusion, these findings demonstrated that PCAT18 promoted NSCLC development by sponging miR-4319. PCAT18 may serve as a crucial biomarker for the diagnosis and targeted therapy of NSCLC.
