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

backgroundThe tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) is an important regulator of tumor progression, growth and metastasis. In addition, tumor metastasis is one of the principal obstacles to the treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC). Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been recognized as important regulators in the development of malignancies. However, their specific roles and mechanisms in both CRC metastasis and TIME have not been thoroughly investigated.

methodsHigh-throughput next-generation sequencing technology and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR technology were performed to identify differential circRNAs in CRC. Functional assays including transwell assay, wound healing assay, and metastasis models were conducted to assess the effect of circRNF216 on CRC metastasis. In addition, luciferase reporter, western blot, RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP), and fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) were performed to explore the underlying mechanism of circRNF216. The level of immune infiltration was assessed by bioinformatics analysis and flow cytometry in CRC model. Furthermore, rescue and mutation experiments were used for verification.

resultscircRNF216 was identified as a putative tumor suppressor that is downregulated in CRC tissues and cells. Overexpression of circRNF216 inhibits metastasis in vitro and vivo. Mechanistically, circRNF216 acts as a competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) for miR-576-5p, alleviating miR-576-5p repression on its target ZC3H12C, which in turn downregulated N-cadherin. Additionally, circRNF216 could enhance the infiltration level of CD8

conclusionsHere, we provide novel mechanistic insight revealing how circRNF216 functioned in CRC metastasis and TIME via the circRNF216/miR-576-5p/ZC3H12C pathway. Therefore, circRNF216 holds promise as a potential therapeutic target and novel diagnostic marker for CRC.
