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

Lidocaine can inhibit the malignant development of various human cancers. Circular RNA (circRNA) dynein 1 heavy chain gene (circ_DYNC1H1) acted as a pro-cancer molecule in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study aimed to explore whether the function of lidocaine was related to the oncogenic circ_DYNC1H1 in HCC. Colony formation assay and 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-y1)-2, 5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay were used for proliferation detection. Cell apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometry, and migration or invasion was determined by the transwell assay. The levels of circ_DYNC1H1, microRNA-520a-3p (miR-520a-3p), and ubiquitin-specific protease 14 (USP14) were examined using the quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Protein levels were measured using western blot. The binding between miR-520a-3p and circ_DYNC1H1 or USP14 was confirmed by the dual-luciferase reporter assay.
