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

The leading cause of death in pancreatic cancer (PC) patients is the progression of cancer metastasis. Recently, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to play an important role in regulating cancer cell proliferation and metastasis; however, its molecular basis in PC remains to be explored. In this study, we observed that LINC01094 was markedly overexpressed in PC tissues and was associated with poor patient prognosis. Downregulation of LINC01094 decreased the proliferation and metastasis of PC cells and inhibited tumorigenesis and metastasis in mouse xenografts. Mechanically, LINC01094 acted as an endogenous miR-577 sponge to increase the expression of its target gene, the RNA-binding protein lin-28 homolog B (LIN28B), by decoying the miR-577, thereby activating the PI3K/AKT pathway. Our findings suggest that LINC01094 plays critical roles in proliferation and metastasis of PC, implying that LINC01094 can be regarded as a new biomarker or therapeutic target for the treatment of PC.
