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

Thyroid cancer is the most common malignancy of the endocrine system, and its outcome remains unsatisfactory. In recent years, circular RNAs (circRNAs) have emerged as crucial regulators in cancers. In the current study, we aimed to investigate whether and how circRNA_0057209 functioned in thyroid cancer. Initial results revealed that circRNA_0057209 and STK4 were both reduced, while miR-183 was up-regulated in thyroid cancer tissues and cells. Experiments including RNA pull-down and RIP assays further identified that upregulation of circRNA_0057209 augmented the expression of STK4, a target gene of miR-183, by competitively-binding to miR-183. Furthermore, functional experiments provided evidence that overexpression of circRNA_0057209 not only inhibited the proliferative, migratory, and invasive properties of thyroid cancer cells while facilitating their apoptosis but also delayed tumor growth. Conversely, upregulation of miR-183 or silencing of STK4 reversed the changes induced by circRNA_0057209. Meanwhile, mechanistic experimentation demonstrated that circRNA_0057209 promoted STK4 expression by sponging miR-183, while STK4 enhanced YAP phosphorylation to mediate the Hippo pathway, thereby suppressing tumor progression. Altogether, our findings indicated that circRNA_0057209 may serve as a competing endogenous RNA of miR-183 to increase STK4 expression, thus inhibiting the development of thyroid cancer.
