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

Recent studies focus on long noncoding RNAs (lncRNA) as crucial regulators of cancer biology that contribute to essential cancer cell functions such as cell proliferation, apoptosis, and metastasis. In pancreatic cancer, several lncRNAs have been mentioned as important actors in tumorigenesis. However, the function of lncRNA ANRIL (named as ANRIL as follows) in pancreatic cancer has not been elucidated. In the present study, we show that ANRIL was up-regulated while miR-181a was down-regulated in pancreatic cancer tissues and HMGB1 was highly expressed. Knockdown of ANRIL in pancreatic cancer repressed cellular proliferation, invasion, migration, and reduced chemotherapy resistance to gemcitabine. ANRIL was negatively correlated with miR-181a, while overexpression of miR-181a could reverse the effect. For further mechanism research, we found that miR-181a aimed to HMGB1 which activated cell autophagy. Taken together, our results implicate that the ANRIL, by targeting miR-181a, activates the HMGB1-induced cell autophagy, which is thought to be critical for oncogenesis.
