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

Here, we investigated the clinicopathological and prognostic potential of the long noncoding RNA Colon Cancer-Associated Transcript 2 (CCAT2) in human colorectal cancer (CRC). We used qPCR to quantify CCAT2 levels in 44 pairs of CRC tissues and adjacent nontumor and healthy colon mucosa tissues, and in several CRC cell lines (SW620, SW480, HT-29, LOVO, HCT116 and DLD-1) and normal human colorectal epithelial cells (HFC). We assessed the effects of CCAT2 overexpression or knockdown on the proliferation, migration and invasion by SW620 and LOVO cells using CCK-8, transwell, and wound-healing assays, respectively. We also investigated the potential interaction between CCAT2 and TAF15 through RNA pull down and rescue experiments. Lastly, we evaluated the expression of the cell cycle progression markers and GSK3β signaling pathway proteins using Western blotting. Our results showed that CCAT2 was upregulated in CRC tissues and cell lines as com-pared to controls. Ectopic expression of CCAT2 promoted CRC cell proliferation, migration and invasion, likely through direct interaction with TAF15, transcriptional activation of RAB14, and activation of the AKT/GSK3β signaling pathway.
