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

backgroundA series of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been reported to play a crucial role in cancer biology. Some previous studies report that lncRNA CDKN2B-AS1 is involved in some human malignancies. However, its role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has not been fully deciphered.

aimTo decipher the role of CDKN2B-AS1 in the progression of HCC.

methodsCDKN2B-AS1 expression in HCC was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. The malignant phenotypes of Li-7 and SNU-182 cells were detected by the CCK-8 method, EdU method, and flow cytometry, respectively. RNA immunoprecipitation was executed to confirm the interaction between CDKN2B-AS1 and E2F transcription factor 1 (E2F1). Luciferase reporter assay and chromatin immunoprecipitation were performed to verify the binding of E2F1 to the promoter of G protein subunit alpha Z (GNAZ). E2F1 and GNAZ were detected by western blot in HCC cells.

resultsIn HCC tissues, CDKN2B-AS1 was upregulated. Depletion of CDKN2B-AS1 inhibited the proliferation of HCC cells, and the depletion of CDKN2B-AS1 also induced cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. CDKN2B-AS1 could interact with E2F1. Depletion of CDKN2B-AS1 inhibited the binding of E2F1 to the GNAZ promoter region. Overexpression of E2F1 reversed the biological effects of depletion of CDKN2B-AS1 on the malignant behaviors of HCC cells.

conclusionCDKN2B-AS1 recruits E2F1 to facilitate GNAZ transcription to promote HCC progression.
