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

lncRNA ZFAS1 was identified to facilitate thyroid cancer, but its role in medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) remains unknown. This study aimed to unravel the potential function of this lncRNA in MTC by investigating the involvement of the lncRNA ZFAS1 in a ceRNA network that regulates MTC invasion. Proliferation, invasion, and migration of cells were evaluated using EdU staining and Transwell assays. Immunoprecipitation (IP) assays, dual-fluorescence reporter, and RNA IP assays were employed to examine the binding interaction among genes. Nude mice were used to explore the role of lncRNA ZFAS1 in MTC in vivo. ZFAS1 and EPAS1 were upregulated in MTC. Silencing ZFAS1 inhibited MTC cell proliferation and invasion under hypoxic conditions, which reduced EPAS1 protein levels. UCHL1 knockdown increased EPAS1 ubiquitination. ZFAS1 positively regulated UCHL1 expression by binding to miR-214-3p. Finally, silencing ZFAS1 significantly repressed tumor formation and metastasis in MTC. LncRNA ZFAS1 promotes invasion of MTC by upregulating EPAS1 expression via the miR-214-3p/UCHL1 axis.
