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

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a life-threatening brain tumor. This study aimed to identify potential targets of the long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) HULC that promoted the progression of GBM. Two U87 cell lines were constructed: HULC-siRNA and negative control (NC). Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was performed to validate the transfection efficiency of HULC silencing vector. Mass spectrometry (MS) was used to generate proteomic profiles for the two cell lines. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses were performed to distinguish HULC-related genes and pathway mapping. Colony formation, Transwell, and wound-healing assays were used to investigate the functional effects of HULC knockdown on GBM. We identified 112 up-regulated proteins and 24 down-regulated proteins from a total of 4360 quantified proteins. GO enrichment illustrated that these proteins were mainly involved in organelle structure, catalysis, cell movement, and material metabolism. KEGG pathway analysis indicated that some of these proteins were significantly enriched in tight junction, metabolic pathways, and arachidonic acid metabolism. In vitro experiments demonstrated that HULC knockdown inhibited GBM cell proliferation, invasion, and migration. Our KEGG analyses revealed that PLA2G4A was a shared protein in several enriched pathways. HULC silencing significantly down-regulated the expression of PLA2G4A. Knockdown of HULC changed the proteomic characteristics of GBM and altered the behaviors of GBM cells. Specifically, we identified PLA2G4A as an HULC target in GBM. This study provides a new perspective on the mechanisms and potential drug targets of GBM treatment.
