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

Emerging evidences have shown that long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) plays an important role in the immune escape of cancer cells. Our previous study has demonstrated that lncRNA MIAT is associated with the immune infiltration of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the underlying mechanism of MIAT regulating the PD-L1-mediated immune escape of HCC is poorly understood. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of MIAT and PD-L1 mRNA in HCC. The relationship between MIAT, miR-411-5p, STAT3 and PD-L1 was explored by dual-luciferase reporter assay, cytotoxicity assay, Western blot and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP). In addition, the xenograft model was established to determine the effect of MIAT on PD-L1 expression in vivo. We found that MIAT and PD-L1 were significantly upregulated in HCC tissues and the expression of PD-L1 was regulated by MIAT. The knockdown of MIAT enhanced the cytotoxicity of T cells on HCC cells. MIAT negatively regulated miR-411-5p expression, upregulated STAT3 and ultimately increased PD-L1 expression from the transcription level. The inhibition of miR-411-5p reversed STAT3 and PD-L1 expression inhibited by MIAT knockdown in HCC cells. This study suggests a novel lncRNA-mediated mechanism for HCC cells to evade the immune response; MIAT/miR-411-5p/STAT3/PD-L1 may be a novel therapeutic target for HCC.
