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

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a malignant neoplasm with high mortality and morbidity. The role of circRNA and its molecular mechanism in OSCC remains largely unknown. The study aims to explore the role of a novel circular RNA (circLDLRAD3) in OSCC and its underlying mechanism. PCR and fluorescence in situ hybridization were used to explore the expression features of circLDLRAD3 in OSCC. The effects of circLDLRAD3 on the behaviour of OSCC were investigated using CCK-8, colony formation assay, transwell and animal experiments. Bioinformatics analysis along with dual luciferase reporter assay and RIP assay were used to reveal the interaction between circLDLRAD3, miR-558 and Smad4. It was revealed that circLDLRAD3 exhibited low expression status in OSCC. CircLDLRAD3 inhibits proliferation, migration, and invasion of OSCC cells both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, circLDLRAD3 could bind with miR-558 to positively regulate its target gene Smad4 expression. Rescue experiments further confirmed both miR-558 overexpression and Smad4 knockdown could reverse the influence of circLDLRAD3 on OSCC phenotypes. Moreover, circLDLRAD3 regulate the TGF-β signalling pathways to influence EMT through miR-558/Smad4 axis. Our study found that circLDLRAD3 is downregulated in OSCC and verified its tumour suppressor function and mechanism in OSCC through sponging miR-558 to regulate miR-558/Smad4/TGF-β axis. The characterization of such regulating network uncovers an important mechanism underlying OSCC progression, which could provide promising targets targeted therapy strategies for OSCC in the future.
