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

Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most frequent cancer-related deaths in women worldwide. Studies have shown the potential impact of circRNAs in multiple human tumorigeneses. Research on the vital signaling pathways and therapeutic targets of circRNAs is indispensable. Here, we aimed to investigate the clinical implications and underlying mechanisms of circ_0042881 in BC. RT-qPCR validated circ_0042881 was notably elevated in BC tissues and plasma, and closely associated with BC clinicopathological features. Functionally, circ_0042881 significantly accelerated the proliferation, migration, and invasion of BC cells in vitro and tumor growth and metastasis in vivo. Mechanistically, circ_0042881 promoted BC progression by sponging miR-217 to relieve its inhibition effect in son of sevenless 1 (SOS1), which further activated RAS protein and initiated downstream signaling cascades, including MEK/ERK pathway and PI3K/AKT pathway. We also demonstrated that treatment of BAY-293, an inhibitor of SOS1 and RAS interaction, attenuated BC progression induced by circ_0042881 overexpression. Furthermore, Eukaryotic initiation factor 4A-III (EIF4A3) could facilitate circ_0042881 circularization. Altogether, we proposed a novel signaling network in which circ_0042881, induced by EIF4A3, influences the process of BC tumorigenesis and metastasis by miR-217/SOS1 axis.
