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

backgroundA growing body of evidence has proven that long noncoding ribonucleic acids (lncRNAs) are important epigenetic regulators that play crucial parts in the pathogenesis of human cancers. Previous studies have shown that long intergenic nonprotein coding RNA 01116 (LINC01116) is a carcinogen in several carcinomas; however, its function in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) has not been clarified. Here, we aimed to investigate the role of LINC01116 in LUAD.

methodsThe relative expression levels of LINC01116 in LUAD cell lines and tissues were detected by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. A Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was performed using patient information from the Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA) database. LUAD proliferation, invasion, migration, and apoptosis were measured by performing cell counting kit-8, colony formation, transwell, wound healing, and flow cytometric assays. A xenograft animal experiment was performed to investigate the effect of LINC01116 in vivo. Protein kinase B (AKT) signaling pathway-related protein expressions were tested by Western blot assay.

resultsLINC01116 expression was upregulated in LUAD cells and tissues. The loss-of-function experiments on LUAD cells revealed that silencing LINC01116 expression could decrease cell viability both in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, silencing LINC01116 inhibited LUAD cell invasion and migration and induced cell apoptosis. Mechanically, silencing LINC01116 significantly decreased p-AKT protein levels, and an AKT pathway stimulator could rescue the suppressive effects of small interfering LINC011116-specific RNAs on LUAD development.

conclusionsOur study demonstrated that silencing LINC01116 suppresses the development of LUAD via the AKT signaling pathway.
