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

Ovarian cancer is a female malignancy with high fatality-to-case ratio, which is due to late detection of cancer. Understanding the molecular mechanisms participating in these processes would facilitate design of therapeutic modalities and identification of novel tumor markers. Recent investigations have shown contribution of circular RNAs (circRNAs) in the evolution of ovarian cancer. These transcripts are produced through a back-splicing mechanism. The enclosed configuration of circRNAs protects them from degradation and potentiates them as biomarkers. Several circRNAs such as circMUC16, circRNA_MYLK, circRNA-UBAP2, circWHSC1, hsa_circ_0013958, circFGFR3, hsa_circRNA_102958 and circ_0072995 have been found to be up-regulated in this cancer, acting as oncogenes. On the other hand, circ-ITCH, circPLEKHM3, circ_100395, circ_0078607, circATRNL1, circHIPK3, circRHOBTB3, circEXOC6B, circ9119 and CDR1as are among down-regulated circRNAs in ovarian cancer. Expression levels of circCELSR1, circ_CELSR1, circATL2, circNRIP1, circTNPO3 and hsa_circ_0000714 have been shown to affect resistance of ovarian cancer cells to chemotherapy. Moreover, circ_100395, circFGFR3, circ_0000554, circCELSR1, circ-PTK2, circLNPEP, circ-CSPP1, circ_0000745, circ_100395 and circPLEKHM3 have been shown to regulate epithelial-mesenchymal transition and metastatic ability of ovarian cancer cells. In the current review, we explain the roles of circRNAs in the evolution and progression of ovarian cancer.
