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

Objective: The morbidity and mortality of cervical cancer (CC) rank the fourth-most common among cancers in females, seriously threatening women's health and affecting their quality of life. However, the molecular mechanism of CC development remains poorly understood. This study investigates the role of lncRNA SCIRT in the development of CC. Methods: The expression profile of long noncoding RNA stem cell inhibitory RNA transcript (lncRNA SCIRT) in CC ( Results: LncRNA SCIRT was highly expressed in CC tissues and cells, and significantly linked with clinical/pathology-based characteristics of patients, including Federation Internationale of Gynecologie and Obstetrigue (FIGO) stage, tumor dimensions, and lymph-node metastasis. SCIRT knockdown markedly reduced CC proliferative, colony forming, and invasive properties, while overexpressing SCIRT promoted the proliferative and invasive properties of CC. Western blotting analysis demonstrated that SCIRT knockdown upregulated e-cadherin and downregulated n-cadherin, vimentin, MMP-9, and MMP-2. Meanwhile, overexpressing SCIRT of lncRNA SCIRT had the opposite effect. Tumorigenic experiment showed that SCIRT knockdown could markedly reduce CC proliferative property the nude mouse. Conclusion: LncRNA SCIRT was highly expressed in CC clinical cases. Knockdown/overexpressing SCIRT affected CC proliferative/invasive properties. Hence, lncRNA SCIRT is a promising drug-target and a new biological diagnostic molecule for CC patients.
