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

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) act as regulators of gene expression and pivotal transcriptional regulators in cancer cells via diverse mechanisms. lncRNAs involves a variety of pathological and biological activities, such as apoptosis, cell proliferation, metastasis, and invasion. By using microarray and RNA sequencing, it was identified that dysregulation of lncRNAs affects the tumorigenesis process. Taken together, these lncRNAs are putative biomarker and therapeutic target in human malignancies. In this review, I discuss the latest finding regarding the dysregulation of some important lncRNAs and their diverse mechanisms of these lncRNAs in the pathogenesis and progression of certain cancers; also, I summarize the possible roles of lncRNAs in clinical application for diagnosis and prognosis of cancer.
