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

backgroundColorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Growing evidence supports a role for noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) in CRC. In particular, they form competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks involved in the regulation of mRNA expression. However, the role of these networks in the pathogenesis of CRC is not fully understood. The aim of this study was to elucidate the role of circRNA/lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA systems in CRC pathogenesis based on the construction of a ceRNA network.

methodsRNA expression profiles were obtained from public datasets in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and used for further analysis by online databases and tools.

resultsIn total, 245 circRNAs, 1,666 lncRNAs, 5 miRNAs, and 934 mRNAs were differentially expressed in CRC samples. Functional enrichment analysis identified altered biological functions related to the mRNAs in the ceRNA network, and it was found that the oxytocin signaling pathway was significantly enriched (P<0.05) in genes with differential expression in CRC. Additionally, we established a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network and identified 10 hub genes for the construction of circRNA/lncRNA-miRNA-hub gene regulatory modules.

conclusionsWe identified several ncRNAs with a possible pathogenetic role in CRC and built a CRC-specific ceRNA network. The results of our study provide novel insights into the molecular events implicated in CRC.
