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

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive subtype of breast cancer. Dysregulation of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) plays crucial roles in the initiation and progression of TNBC. In this study, we analyzed public GEO profiles to verify the key lncRNAs in TNBC. Linc00921 was selected for further study. Low expression of linc00921 was observed in 49 of 95 TNBC tissues. Low expression of linc00921 was correlated with poor postoperative disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) of TNBC patients. Overexpression of linc00921 with lentivirus suppressed the proliferation, migration and invasion of TNBC cells. A luciferase reporter assay showed that linc00921 could sponge miR-9-5p in TNBC. Moreover, linc00921 and miR-9-5p occupied the same Argonaute-2 (Ago2) protein in TNBC cells. Leucine zipper tumor suppressor 2 (LZTS2) was recognized as a target gene of miR-9-5p, and thereby a linc00921/miR-9-5p/LZTS2 axis was identified in TNBC cells. Overexpression of linc00921 promoted nuclear export of β-catenin, neutralized its function, and subsequently promoted epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in TNBC. A xenograft tumor mouse model showed that the miR-9-5p inhibitor upregulates LZTS2 expression and induce nuclear export of β-catenin in TNBC. Thus, linc00921 upregulates LZTS2 by sponging miR-9-5p to suppress tumorigenesis and EMT of TNBC. Linc00921/miR-9-5p/LZTS2 axis may be a novel biomarker and therapeutic target for TNBC patients.
