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

Long intergenic non-coding RNA 239 (Linc00239) acts as an oncogene in colorectal cancer (CRC), esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, and acute myeloid leukemia cells. However, its role and regulatory mechanisms in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) remain unknown. We used StarBase and The Cancer Genome Atlas databases to evaluate Linc00239 expression and its effect on ccRCC. Furthermore, the function of Linc00239 in ccRCC proliferation and metastasis was analyzed using Cell Counting Kit-8 and Transwell assays following Linc00239 knockdown. Subsequently, the Linc00239-miRNA-mRNA regulatory associations were selected based on miRanda, miTarbase, and previous references, and their expression levels and binding relationship were further validated using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, western blotting and dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. Additionally, we transfected a miRNA inhibitor to evaluate whether the miR-204-5p/RAB22A (Ras-related proteins in brain 22a) axis was involved in Linc00239 function. Linc00239 was elevated in ccRCC and correlated with poor prognosis. Linc00239 knockdown inhibited ccRCC progression. Additionally, Linc00239 inhibition elevated miR-204-5p expression and repressed RAB22A levels. Moreover, miR-204-5p inhibitors attenuated this inhibitory effect on proliferation, migration, invasion, and RAB22A level when Linc00239 was knocked down. Linc00239 promotes ccRCC proliferation and metastasis by elevating RAB22A expression through the adsorption of miR-204-5p, which provides a clue for the diagnosis and treatment of ccRCC.
