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) is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of NSCLC. In this study, we explored the molecular determinants underlying the oncogenic property of circ_0026134 in NSCLC.

methodsThe levels of circ_0026134, miR-3619-5p and chromatin assembly factor 1 subunit B axis (CHAF1B) were assessed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blot. Cell colony formation, migration, invasion and apoptosis were detected by colony formation, Transwell, and flow cytometry assays, respectively. Direct relationships among circ_0026134, miR-3619-5p and CHAF1B were verified by dual-luciferase reporter assays.

resultsOur results showed that circ_0026134 was highly expressed in NSCLC tissues and cells. Reduced circ_0026134 expression or miR-3619-5p overexpression inhibited NSCLC cell colony formation, migration, invasion, glycolysis and promoted cell apoptosis in vitro. Moreover, circ_0026134 directly targeted miR-3619-5p, and circ_0026134 regulated CHAF1B expression through miR-3619-5p. CHAF1B was a downstream effector of circ_0026134 in affecting NSCLC cell functional behaviors in vitro. Additionally, circ_0026134 silencing weakened tumor growth in vivo.

conclusionsOur study identified a novel regulatory mechanism, the circ_0026134/miR-3619-5p/CHAF1B axis, for the oncogenic role of circ_0026134 in NSCLC, highlighting circ_00261345 inhibition as a potential therapeutic method against NSCLC.
