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

backgroundLong non-coding RNAs are broadly dysregulated in disease conditions, especially cancer, and are associated with tumor initiation, invasion, and overall survival. This study aimed to elucidate the expression level of Small Nucleolar RNA Host Gene 4 (SNHG4) lncRNA in colorectal cancer (CRC) and its effect on cell cycle progression, invasion, and death. METHODS AND

resultsWe evaluated the expression level of SNHG4 in clinical samples, including CRC tissues, adenomatous colorectal polyps (ACP), and their marginals. SNHG4-silenced SW1116 cells were used to evaluate the cell viability, cycle arrest, invasion, and apoptosis using MTT assay, scratching, flow cytometry, and immunoblotting. We also predicted molecular networks related to the SNHG4 involvement in CRC development. Results showed that SNHG4 expresses in cancerous tissues significantly higher than in polyps and marginals. This overexpression discriminated CRC from marginals and ACP with a suitable prognostic potential. Silencing of SNHG4 arrested the cell cycle at S and G2 phases and promoted early apoptosis in SW1116. It affected the active form of MMP2 and prevented cell invasion. Sponging of miRNAs which promotes the choline metabolism is the probable mechanism of SNHG4 involvement in CRC.

conclusionsIn conclusion, SNHG4 promotes CRC by dysregulating apoptosis and cell migration, and shows significant prognostic potential for CRC.
