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

backgroundCircular RNAs (circRNAs) are closely associated with the development of breast cancer (BC). In this study, we aimed to clarify how differentially expressed circRNAs affect the development of BC.

methodsQuantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of circADAM9, miR-1236-3p and fibroblast growth factor 7 (FGF7). Colony formation, 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU), wound healing, transwell, and flow cytometry were used to assess cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis. Glucose consumption, lactic acid production and ATP levels were assessed using glycolysis metabolism analysis. Dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay were carried out to verify the relationship between miR-1236-3p and circADAM9 or FGF7. The roles of cirADAM9 on tumor growth were analyzed using a xenograft tumor model. Ki-67 and FGF7 expression was measured via immunohistochemistry (IHC) assay. Apoptosis-related proteins and exosome markers were detected by western blot.

resultsCircADAM9 was highly expressed in BC cells, and circADAM9 silencing inhibited BC cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and glycolysis, and promoted cell apoptosis. Furthermore, miR-1236-3p inhibition could overturn circADAM9 knockdown-mediated BC inhibition. Moreover, the negative influences of miR-1236-3p overexpression on BC progression were restrained via FGF7 overexpression. CircADAM9 silence also inhibited BC tumor growth in vivo.

conclusionCircADAM9 promoted BC development partly by the miR-1236-3p/FGF7 axis, highlighting a potential prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target for BC patients.
