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

Background: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a novel type of non-coding RNA, play an important role in the progression of tumors. However, the function and mechanism of circRNAs in regulating immune microenvironment of pancreatic cancer (PC) remain largely unclear. Methods: The effects of hsa_circ_0046523 expression on proliferation, migration and invasion of PC cells were analyzed by CCK8 and Transwell assays. Flow cytometry was used to detect the proportion of CD4 Results: Hsa_circ_0046523 expression was remarkably upregulated in PC tissues and cell lines. Moreover, high expression of hsa_circ_0046523 was correlated with advanced pathological stage and poorer prognosis. Hsa_circ_0046523 overexpression promoted the proliferation, migration and invasion of PC cells Conclusions: Our study suggests that hsa_circ_0046523/miR-148a-3p/PD-L1 regulatory axis mediates PC immunosuppressive microenvironment and these molecules are expected to be new targets for remodeling tumor immune microenvironment of PC.
