Down-regulation and Clinic-pathological Correlation of SIK-1 and SIK-1-LNC in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Patients
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundNon-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is currently the leading cause of mortality cancer. Introducing noninvasive approaches to diagnose NSCLC, especially at an early phase, might improve the disease's prognosis. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), which are important regulators of the expression genes inside the cells, have been linked to a range of biological processes, such as cancer progression and metastasis, including NSCLC. The present work aims to determine the potential involvement of SIK-1-LNC and SIK-1 in NSCLC pathogenesis and the possible use of these molecules as novel biomarkers or therapeutic targets.
methodsIn this work, the expression levels of SIK-1-LNC and SIK-1 in 50 pairs of NSCLC tumor and tumor marginal tissues were evaluated. So, after total RNA extraction and complementary DNA synthesis, the SIK-1-LNC and SIK-1 expression levels were evaluated by real-time PCR. In the study groups, clinical and pathological characteristics of the NSCLC patients were also examined.
resultsOur findings showed that tumor samples had much lower levels of SIK-1 and SIK-1-LNC expression than tumor margin samples. SIK-1-LNC expression was correlated with SIK-1 levels in NSCLC samples. Interestingly, both stage and lymph node metastasis features of the tumor were associated significantly with SIK-1 and SIK-1-LNC expression levels. A ROC curve analysis indicated a biomarker index of 0.69 and 0.74 for SIK-1 and SIK-1-LNC, respectively.
conclusionCollectively, our study emphasized the role of SIK-1-LNC and SIK-1 downregulation in NSCLC oncogenesis. Additionally, SIK-1 and SIK-1-LNC, particularly the latter, have shown remarkable potential to be utilized as new NSCLC biomarkers and therapeutic targets.
