Regulation of the Inflammatory Response, Proliferation, Migration, and Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition of Human Lens Epithelial Cells by the lncRNA-MALAT1/miR-26a-5p/TET1 Signaling Axis.

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.
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: The ocular inflammatory microenvironment has been reported to be closely associated with the occurrence and progression of highly myopic cataract (HMC). Long noncoding RNA metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) could alter the biological properties of mammalian cells by modulating the expression of inflammatory mediators; therefore, it may contribute to the development of HMC. Objective: To investigate the function of MALAT1 in the inflammatory response, proliferation, migration, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of inflammatory and injured human lens epithelial cells (HLECs) and to reveal the underlying molecular signals. Methods: Patients with HMC and age-related cataract (ARC) with an axial length of more than 26 mm were selected, and the anterior capsular tissue was obtained during cataract surgery. TNF- Results: The expression of MALAT1 and the inflammatory mediators IL-6, MMP-2, and MMP-9 were significantly higher in HMC anterior capsule tissues than in ARC. TNF- Conclusion: The inflammatory environment and MALAT1 expression could be reciprocally induced in HLECs. MALAT1 may act as a ceRNA via the "sponge" miR-26a-5p and target TET1 to regulate the inflammatory response, proliferation, migration, and EMT processes in HLECs.
