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

Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed malignant tumor and the second-highest cause of cancer-related deaths in women worldwide. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are associated with the development of numerous cancers, including breast cancer. Here, we present the first report that circRPAP2 (hsa_circ_0000091) is downregulated in breast cancer tissue samples and cell lines. Furthermore, the expression level of circRPAP2 in breast cancer tissues was correlated with axillary lymph node metastasis and TNM stage. Biological function studies demonstrated that circRPAP2 inhibited the proliferation and migration of breast cancer in vivo and in vitro. The mechanistic evaluation indicated that circRPAP2 can bind to the oncoprotein SRSF1, likely competing with the binding between SRSF1 and PTK2 pre-mRNA, thereby attenuating SRSF1-mediated alternate splicing of PTK2, an effector of SRSF1 oncogenic activity, resulting in the reduction of PTK2 mRNA and protein expression. Overall, our findings suggest that circRPAP2 plays a tumor suppressor role and may serve as a biomarker in breast cancer. In addition, the identification of the circRPAP2/SRSF1/PTK2 axis provides new insights into the pathogenesis of breast cancer and highlights a novel target for the development of oncotherapeutics.
