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

Taurine up-regulated gene 1 (TUG1) is a cancer-associated long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) and engages in the development of spinal cord injury (SCI), a suffering neuropathological disorder. However, the regulatory role of TUG1 in acute SCI (ASCI) is still underdetermined. RT-qPCR and western blot analysis were applied to measure the expression of TUG1, microRNA-338 (miR-338), Bcl2-interacting killer (BIK), cleaved caspase 3 (c-caspase 3) and hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α) in ASCI rats and hypoxic cells. Cell death was evaluated using flow cytometric analysis. The relationships among miR-338, TUG1 or BIK were confirmed by luciferase reporter assay, RNA immunoprecipitation and RNA pull-down. Accordingly, we monitored higher expression of TUG1 and BIK, but lower expression of miR-338 in ASCI rats and hypoxic cells.
