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

Objective: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a lethal malignancy in the world. LncRNA THUMPD3-AS1 is implicated in tumorigenesis and progression in various tumors. Therefore, this study was applied to investigate the action of THUMPD3-AS1 in HCC by regulating microRNA (miR)-4465 and KPNA2. Methods: The clinical specimens of HCC were collected to determine THUMPD3-AS1, KPNA2, miR-4465, E-cadherin, Vimentin, N-cadherin, ZEB1 and SNAIL levels. HCC cells were screened and transfected with sh-THUMPD3-AS1 or miR-4465 mimic to explore their roles in HCC cell phenotype and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related factors. The involvement of miR-4465 in THUMPD3-AS1-mediated HCC was proved. The relationship of THUMPD3-AS1, KPNA2 and miR-4465 was verified. Results: Overexpressed THUMPD3-AS1 and KPNA2 and reduced miR-4465 were present in HCC clinical tissues. THUMPD3-AS1 bound to miR-4465 to target KPNA2. Silencing of THUMPD3-AS1 or restoration of miR-4465 repressed HCC cell phenotypes and EMT Conclusion: This study stresses that THUMPD3-AS1 induces EMT in HCC cells and ultimately promotes HCC cell growth and migration by competitively inhibiting miR-4465 expression and thus upregulating KPNA2.
