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

backgroundNon-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for more than 80% of lung cancers, which is the most common malignant tumor worldwide. Polypeptide extract from scorpion venom (PESV) has been reported to inhibit NSCLC process. The present study aims to reveal the roles of PESV in NSCLC progression under hypoxia and the inner mechanism.

methodsThe expression levels of circular RNA 0016760 (circ_0016760) and microRNA-29b (miR-29b) were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Protein expression was determined by western blot and immunohistochemistry assays. Cell migration, invasion, proliferation and tube formation were investigated by transwell, cell colony formation, 3-(4,5-Dimethylthazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide and tube formation assays. The impacts between PESV and circ_0016760 overexpression on tumor growth in vivo were investigated by in vivo tumor formation assay.

resultsCirc_0016760 expression was dramatically upregulated in NSCLC tissues and cells, compared with adjacent lung tissues and cells, respectively. PESV treatment downregulated circ_0016760 expression. Circ_0016760 silencing or PESV treatment repressed cell migration, invasion, proliferation and tube formation under hypoxia in NSCLC cells. Circ_0016760 overexpression restored the effects of PESV treatment on NSCLC process under hypoxia. Additionally, circ_0016760 acted as a sponge of miR-29b, and miR-29b bound to HIF1A. Meanwhile, miR-29b inhibitor impaired the influences of circ_0016760 knockdown on NSCLC process under hypoxia. Further, ectopic circ_0016760 expression restrained the effects of PESV exposure on tumor formation in vivo.

conclusionCirc_0016760 overexpression counteracted PESV-induced repression of NSCLC cell malignancy and angiogenesis under hypoxia through miR-29b/HIF1A axis.
