TUG1 long non-coding RNA enlists the USF1 transcription factor to overexpress ROMO1 leading to hepatocellular carcinoma growth and metastasis.
Article in MedComm, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 11 papers.
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.
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
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a prevalent and highly aggressive cancer. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are recognized as potential molecular targets for HCC and are currently under increased research focus. Here, we investigate the regulatory processes underlying the axis of the lncRNA taurine upregulated gene 1 (TUG1), Upstream Transcription Factor 1 (USF1), and reactive oxygen species modulator 1 (ROMO1) in the propagation and metastasis of HCC cells. Distribution of lncRNA TUG1 was found to be prominent in HCC cell cytoplasm and nuclei. LncRNA TUG1 conscripted the USF1 transcription factor to enhance the promoter function of ROMO1. Enlisting the USF1 transcription factor to increase ROMO1 expression following upregulation of TUG1 lncRNA enhanced HCC Huh7 cell proliferation, motility, and metastasis. Rapid tumor proliferation in nude mice provided in vivo verification. The importance of the lncRNA TUG1/USF1/ROMO1 complex as a target for HCC therapy is a key result of this investigation which is exemplified by its role in regulating the proliferation, motility, and metastasis of HCC cells.
