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

Cervical cancer (CC) is the most serious gynecological malignancy among women worldwide. As a subtype of noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs), circular RNAs (circRNAs) play important roles in the regulation of gene expression and cancer progression. It was discovered from the cancer-specific circRNA database (CSCD) that circ_0019435 was mainly distributed in the nucleus of HeLa-S3 cells. However, few researches have mentioned circ_0019435 with its function in cancers. The present study uncovered that circ_0019435 was upregulated in CC cells by qRT-PCR. Moreover, circ_0019435 was more stable than its linear isoform-ABCC2. Besides, no regulation of circ_0019435 on ABCC2 and the chemoresistance of CC cells were found. Then, it was unveiled by a series of functional assays including colony formation, trypan blue staining, and transwell invasion assays in that circ_0019435 ablation induced the suppression of proliferation, invasion, and EMT of HeLa and SiHa cells. The subcellular distribution of circ_0019435 was assessed by subcellular fractionation and FISH assay. Furthermore, it was disclosed that circ_0019435 binds to EZH2 to silence DKK1 and PTEN. Finally, rescue assays corroborated that DKK1 and PTEN were involved in circ_0019435-mediated CC cell progression. In conclusion, circ_0019435 regulates DKK1 and PTEN expression at the epigenetic level, thereby influencing the progression of CC cells.
