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

backgroundThe important role played by circular RNA (circRNA) in promoting the progression of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is attracting ever more attention among medical researchers. However, what the precise contribution is of circRTN1 in PTC progression remains unclear. The study was designed to analyze the role and mechanism of circRTN1 in regulating PTC progression.

methodsHuman PTC cell lines (TPC-1 and IHH-4) and human thyroid normal cells (Nthy-ori 3-1) were used for in vitro assays. mRNA or protein expression of circRTN1, miR-101-3p, and high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction or western blot. Cell proliferation was investigated by cell counting kit-8 assay, cell colony formation assay, and 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine assay. Wound-healing assay and transwell invasion assay were conducted to evaluate cell migration and invasion. Dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation assay were applied to verify the target relations between circRTN1, miR-101-3p, and HMGB1. A xenograft tumor model was established to demonstrate the effect of circRTN1 on tumor formation in vivo. An immunohistochemistry assay was used to detect protein expression of HMGB1, ki-67, E-cadherin, and vimentin.

resultsIn comparison with healthy thyroid tissues and cells, PTC tissues and cells displayed high circRTN1 RNA expression and high HMGB1 mRNA and protein expression but low miR-101-3p expression. Silencing of circRTN1 suppressed PTC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro. MiR-101-3p was a target of circRTN1, and the knockdown of miR-101-3p relieved circRTN1 absence-mediated suppressive effects on PTC cell malignancy. HMGB1 was identified as a target gene of miR-101-3p, and overexpressed HMGB1 almost reverted the inhibitory impacts induced by miR-101-3p mimic in PTC cells. Moreover, circRTN1 silencing hampered tumor formation in vivo.

conclusionCircRTN1 depletion impeded PTC cell malignancy via the miR-101-3p/HMGB1 pathway, which provided a possible circRNA-targeted therapeutic strategy for PTC.
