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

Circular RNA (circRNA) F-circEA-2a and micorRNA (miR)-3940-5p are two non-coding RNAs with critical roles in cancer biology. However, their participation in gastric adenocarcinoma (GA) is unclear. We predicted that miR-3940-5p could bind to F-circEA-2a and speculated that miR-3940-5p may interact with F-circEA-2a to participate in cancer biology. This study was conducted to explore the interaction between F-circEA-2a and miR-3940-5p in GA. F-circEA-2a and miR-3940-5p (mature and premature) levels in GA were detected using RT-qPCR. Their correlations were analyzed by Pearson's correlation coefficient. The role of F-circEA-2a in miR-3940-5p maturation was analyzed using overexpression assay. The direct binding of premature miR-3940-5p to F-circEA-2a was analyzed by RNA-RNA pulldown. Proliferation was analyzed with BrdU assay. We found that F-circEA-2a and premature miR-3940-5p were overexpressed in GA, while mature miR-3940-5p was under-expressed in GA. F-circEA-2a suppressed miR-3940-5p maturation in GA cells. MiR-3940-5p directly bound to F-circEA-2a wild type (-wt), but not mutant (-mut). F-circEA-2a promoted GA cell proliferation and inhibited the role of miR-3940-5p in reducing cell proliferation. Therefore, F-circEA-2a might suppress mature miR-3940-5p formation by sponging premature miR-3940-5p to promote cell proliferation in GA. Our study characterized a novel circRNA regulating miR-3940-5p maturation in GA.
