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

backgroundObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a risk factor for atherosclerosis. Long non-coding RNA metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) is strongly linked to endothelial cell functions. However, the function of MALAT1 in intermittent hypoxia (IH) associated vascular endothelial injury has not been explored yet. The current study makes great attempts to investigate the function of MALAT1 in IH-induced endothelial injury and its latent control network.

methodsTo mimic the effect of OSA, we cultured the human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) under intermittent hypoxia. Western blot was applied to measure the expression level of associated proteins including capase-3, Bax, Bcl-2 while qRT-PCR was used in measurement of MALAT1 and miR-142-3p. Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) was carried out in assessing cell viability. Dual-luciferase reporter assay was applied to verify the relationships among high mobility group box (HMGB)1 and MALAT1, miR-142-3p.

resultsIH treatment significantly reduced cell viability but enhanced cell apoptosis in HUVECs. Concomitantly, MALAT1 was significantly upregulated in IH-treated HUVECs. Further experiment showed that MALAT1 knockdown augmented IH-induced injury of HUVECs. In addition, it was confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter assay that MALAT1 interacted with miR-142-3p directly. Besides, inhibition of miR-142-3p alleviated damage induced by MALAT1 knockdown in IH-treated HUVECs. Finally, miR-142-3p interacted with HMGB1 directly and inhibition of HMGB1 protein expression mediated by MALAT1 knockdown was reversed by miR-142-3p inhibitor.

conclusionsIH resulted in increased expression of MALAT1 in HUVECs. MALAT1 knockdown augmented IH-induced injury of HUVECs. MALAT1 exerted its effects on IH-treated HUVECs via miR-142-3p/HMGB1.
