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/

aimRenal cell carcinoma is one of the three most common malignant urologic tumors, with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) representing its most common subtype. Although nephrectomy can radically cure the disease, a large percentage of patients is diagnosed when metastatic sites are present and thus alternative, pharmaceutical approaches need to be sought. Since HIF1 up-regulates the transcription of genes that range from metabolic enzymes to non-coding RNAs, and is a key molecule of ccRCC pathogenesis, this study aimed to investigate the expression ALDOA, SOX-6, and non-coding RNAs (mir-122, mir-1271, and MALAT-1) in samples from ccRCC patients. PATIENTS AND

methodsTumor and adjacent normal tissue samples from 14 patients with ccRCC were harvested. Expression of ALDOA, mir-122, mir-1271, and MALAT-1 mRNA was estimated using real time PCR, whereas the expression of SOX-6 protein was investigated using immunohistochemistry.

resultsUp-regulation of HIF1 was observed, accompanied with up-regulation of ALDOA, MALAT-1, and mir-122. On the contrary, the expression of mir-1271 was found to be reduced, a finding that can be attributed to a potential MALAT-1 sponge function. Furthermore, SOX-6 protein levels (a transcription factor with tumor suppressing properties) were also reduced.

conclusionThe observed dysregulated expression levels highlight the importance of ALDOA, MALAT-1, mir-122, mir-1271, and SOX-6, which remain less studied than the known and well-studied HIF1 pathways of VEGF, TGF-α, and EPO. Furthermore, inhibition of the up-regulated ALDOA, mir-122, and MALAT-1 could be of therapeutic interest for selected ccRCC patients.
