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

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) play crucial roles in various biological processes, including prostate cancer (PCa). However, the precise roles and mechanism of circRNAs are complicated. Hence, we studied the function of a circRNA that might be involved in the progression of PCa. In this study, we found that circARHGEF28 was frequently downregulated in PCa tissues and cell lines. Furthermore, gain- and loss-of function experiments in vitro showed that circARHGEF28 inhibited proliferation, migration, and invasion of PCa. Additionally, circARHGEF28 suppressed PCa progression in vivo. Bioinformatics analysis and RNA pull-down and capture assay found that circARHGEF28 sponged miR-671-5p in PCa cells. Importantly, qRT-PCR and dual luciferase assays found that Lectin galactoside-binding soluble 3 binding protein (LGALS3BP) was downstream of miR-671-5p, and western blot analysis further confirmed that LGALS3BP negatively regulated the nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) pathway. These results demonstrated that circARHGEF28 abolished the degradation of LGALS3BP by sponging miR-671-5p, thus blocking the activation of the NF-κB pathway. Our findings revealed that circARHGEF28/miR-671-5p/LGALS3BP/NF-κB may be an important axis that regulates PCa progression.
