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

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the most common malignant tumor in the oral and maxillofacial regions, and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play crucial roles in the occurrence and progression of HNSCC. The lncRNA lnc-H2AFV-1 was found to be upregulated in HNSCC tissues; however, the function of lnc-H2AFV-1 in regulating HNSCC proliferation and the potential molecular mechanism is unclear. The present study evaluated the expression of lnc-H2AFV-1 in HNSCC tissues using quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) and associated abundant lnc-H2AFV-1 expression with tumor size. Functionally, lnc-H2AFV-1 significantly promoted the proliferation of HNSCC cells in vitro and in vivo. Quantified N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA methylation and dot blot assays revealed that total m6A methylation in HNSCC cells was accompanied by lnc-H2AFV-1 expression. Western blotting showed that the expression of methyltransferase-like (METTL) 3 and METTL14 was consistent with that of lnc-H2AFV-1, whereas the expression of demethylase fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) was contrary to that of lnc-H2AFV-1. Methylated RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (MeRIP-seq) and MeRIP-qPCR revealed that lnc-H2AFV-1 overexpression led to the elevated expression and maximal m6A methylation of intraflagellar transport (IFT) 80 in HNSCC. In addition, METTL3/14 knockdown decreased IFT80 expression. Thus, our findings suggested that lnc-H2AFV-1 might be a biomarker that alters m6A modification by regulating the m6A methylases METTL3/14 and FTO and then mediating the downstream target IFT80 to promote HNSCC progression.
