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

objectiveThis study aimed to explore the specific mechanism of action of Progranulin (PGRN) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and its interaction with lncRNA H19.

methodsNormal and cancerous lung tissues were collected from patients with NSCLC and healthy volunteers. We assessed the expression of PGRN in both groups using immunohistochemistry, quantitative-reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), and western blotting (WB).

resultsCompared to the controls, PGRN expression was noticeably higher in tumor tissues. The high expression of PGRN in patients with NSCLC was inversely correlated to the prognosis and strongly associated with the biological features and clinicopathologic data. High PGRN expression significantly improved the ability of NSCLC cells to proliferate and migrate and was positively correlated with tumor formation, based on in vitro and in vivo cellular tests. Expression of lncRNA H19 was also found to be elevated in NSCLC tissue and cells. The expression of H19 was correlated with tumor growth in vivo and in vitro, and H19 regulated PGRN by mediating the expression of miR-29b-3p.

conclusionsH19 and PGRN can serve as biomarkers and therapeutic targets in NSCLC.
