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

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), an aggressive brain cancer, requires novel therapeutic targets. This study investigates the YY1/lncRNA BLACAT1/miR-605-3p regulatory network in GBM pathogenesis. Using bioinformatics tools and TCGA-GBM datasets, we identified six miR-605-3p target genes (ARPC1B, FOSL1, H6PD, ITGA3, LMAN1, and PXN) strongly correlated with YY1 (p < 0.01). In GBM cells, YY1 mRNA increased ~3.8-fold (p < 0.01), BLACAT1 ~ 2.4-2.7-fold (p < 0.01), and target genes ~1.8-2.5-fold (p < 0.05), while miR-605-3p decreased to ~0.3-fold (p < 0.01). YY1 knockout reduced BLACAT1 to 0.33 (p < 0.001), reversed by miR-605-3p inhibition. YY1 knockout inhibited migration (53-75%, p < 0.001), invasion (53-62%, p < 0.001), colony formation (43-53%, p < 0.001), and angiogenesis (p < 0.01). In U251 xenograft models, YY1 knockout reduced tumor volume from 2036 to 260 mm³ (p < 0.0001), partially restored to 1558 mm³ (p < 0.0001) by miR-605-3p antagomir, while agomir reduced it to 721 mm³ (p < 0.01). YY1 promoted angiogenesis, oxidative stress, inflammation, and fibrosis (p < 0.05), countered by miR-605-3p (p < 0.05). Validations included RT-qPCR, ChIP-qPCR, immunofluorescence, dual-luciferase assays, and immunohistochemistry. The YY1/BLACAT1/miR-605-3p axis drives GBM progression, offering therapeutic potential.
