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 non-coding RNA ST8 α-N-acetyl-neuraminide α-2,8-sialyltransferase 6 antisense 1 (ST8SIA6-AS1) has been identified as a novel oncogene in breast cancer. However, its involvement in liver cancer has remained elusive. In the present study, the expression of ST8SIA6-AS1 and microRNA (miR)-142-3p in liver cancer tissues and cell lines was detected by reverse transcription-quantitative PCR. Tumor cell proliferation, migration and invasion assays were performed to determine the biological functions of ST8SIA6-AS1. The targeting interaction between ST8SIA6-AS1 and miR-142-3p predicted by bioinformatics was verified by a luciferase reporter assay and a biotin pulldown assay. The results indicated that ST8SIA6-AS1 was highly expressed in liver cancer tissues and cell lines, and the high expression of ST8SIA6-AS1 in liver cancer tissues was associated with poor prognosis. Knockdown of ST8SIA6-AS1 inhibited the proliferation, metastasis and invasion of liver cancer cells. Mechanistic investigation revealed that ST8SIA6-AS1 sequesters miR-142-3p and negatively regulates miR-142-3p expression in liver cancer cells. Further investigation indicated that the tumor-inhibitory effect of ST8SIA6-AS1 silencing was reversed by miR-142-3p depletion. In conclusion, ST8SIA6-AS1 was indicated to exert an oncogenic function in liver cancer by competitively sponging miR-142-3p.
