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

As lncRNAs have increasingly been investigated, they are no longer simply defined as RNAs with no transcription capability. Studies have identified significant associations between the abnormal expression of lncRNAs and human diseases, particularly the mechanisms by which lncRNAs play a part in cancers, which are of considerable attention to researchers. As a result of the complex spatial structure, the mechanisms of interaction of lncRNAs in cancer cells are also complicated and diversified. Among a series of lncRNAs, TUG1, which is now considered to be a very high-value lncRNA, has recently been identified to express abnormally in some malignancies, leading to different alterations in cancer cells proliferation, migration, invasion, apoptosis, and drug resistance, and hence promoting or inhibiting cancer progression. Current studies have implicitly indicated that TUG1 can be used as a therapeutic target for human cancers. However, the biological functions of TUG1 have been studied for a short period of time, and the complete molecular mechanism still needs to be clarified. Accordingly, this review focuses on the principal molecular mechanisms of TUG1 in human cancers and the specific mechanisms of action in different cancer development processes based on existing studies.
