Hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyltransferase 1, a target of miR-125b-5p, promotes cell proliferation and invasion in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

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.
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
The mechanism of hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase 1 (HPRT1) upregulation and its function in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) remains obscure. Herein, the expression and function of HPRT1 and the mechanism underlying its upregulation in HNSCC were explored. Firstly, the expression of HPRT1 and its prognostic values were simultaneously validated using bioinformatic analysis and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), and immunohistochemistry staining with local HNSCC samples. The effects of HPRT1 knockdown on proliferation and invasion of HNSCC cells were detected using cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8), plate clone formation, Transwell invasion, nude mouse xenograft model assays. Moreover, the miRNA targeting HPRT1 was validated using dual-luciferase report assay, qRT-PCR and Western blot analysis. The functions of miRNA targeting HPRT1 and its dependence on HPRT1 were further investigated in HNSCC. The results indicated that HPRT1 was highly expressed in HNSCC tissues and cells, which positively correlated with advanced tumor progression and predicted poor prognosis in patients with HNSCC. HPRT1 knockdown markedly inhibited proliferation and invasion of HNSCC cells both
