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

purposeOur study explored the effect of long noncoding RNA BBOX1-AS1 on colorectal cancer (CRC) radiosensitivity in vivo and in vitro.

methodsDifferentially expressed lncRNAs in CRC were screened using a bioinformatics database and an online prediction website. The expression of BBOX1-AS1 in tissue samples was analyzed via real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). Subcellular localization of BBOX1-AS1 in CRC cells was analyzed using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). The correlation between BBOX1-AS1 and PFK1 expression levels in CRC tissues was analyzed via Pearson's correlation coefficient. The effect of BBOX1-AS1 on PFK1 stability was investigated using RNA and protein stability testing. RNA Binding Protein Immunoprecipitation (RIP) and RNA pull-down assays were used to confirm the binding of BBOX1-AS1 to PFK1.

resultsBBOX1-AS1 was highly expressed in CRC and associated with poor prognosis. Similarly, it was highly expressed in CRC tissues and CRC cell lines. In addition, BBOX1-AS1 promoted the proliferation, invasion, migration, and glycolysis of CRC cells and inhibited apoptosis. RIP and RNA pull-down experiments confirmed that BBOX1-AS1 bound to PFK1. RNA stability and protein stability experiments showed that BBOX1-AS1 affected the stability of PFK1 mRNA and protein. Furthermore, we confirmed that BBOX1-AS1 increased radiation resistance through the regulation of PFK1 expression.

conclusionsBBOX1-AS1 promoted the proliferation, invasion, migration, and glycolysis of CRC cells through stabilization of the expression of PFK1. BBOX1-AS1 also inhibited CRC cell apoptosis and increased radiotherapy resistance in CRC cells.
