KCNQ1OT1 promotes retinoblastoma progression by targeting miR-339-3p that suppresses KIF23.
Article in International ophthalmology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
backgroundLong noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in tumor formation and development. KCNQ1OT1 regulates the malignant proliferation of retinoblastoma (RB), but the specific mechanism remains to be further investigated.
methodsThe KCNQ1OT1, miR-339-3p and KIF23 expression levels in RB were detected by qRT-PCR and western blotting. The cell viability, proliferation, migration ability and caspase-3 activity of RB cells were evaluated by CCK-8, BrdU, transwell and caspase-3 activity analysis. Western blot was used to detect the Bax and Bcl-2 protein expression in RB cells. The binding relationship between KCNQ1OT1, miR-339-3p and KIF23 was detected by luciferase, RIP and RNA pull-down assay.
resultsKCNQ1OT1 and KIF23 were up-regulated frequently in RB, and miR-339-3p was down-regulated. Functional studies showed that downregulation of KCNQ1OT1 or KIF23 inhibited the survival and migration of RB cells, and facilitated apoptosis. Interference with miR-339-3p showed the opposite effect. Mechanisms suggested that KCNQ1OT1 exited its oncogenic activity by positively regulating the expression of KIF23 and sponging miR-339-3p.
conclusionKCNQ1OT1/miR-339-3p/KIF23 may be a new biomarker for the diagnosis and treatment of RB.
