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

Breast cancer (BC) remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality, largely due to its aggressive proliferation and metastatic potential. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as key regulators in tumor development and progression. This study explored the functional role and mechanism of Lnc-PRSS23-AS1 in BC. We assessed Lnc-PRSS23-AS1 expression and localization using fluorescence in situ hybridization, qRT-PCR, and Western blotting in BC tissues and cell lines. Binding interactions between Lnc-PRSS23-AS1, miR-3176, and Y-box binding protein 1 (YBX1) were validated through dual-luciferase reporter assays, RNA pulldown, and RNA immunoprecipitation. Lnc-PRSS23-AS1 was significantly upregulated in BC and predominantly localized in the cytoplasm. Silencing Lnc-PRSS23-AS1 or overexpressing miR-3176 suppressed BC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro and in vivo. Conversely, miR-3176 inhibition or YBX1 overexpression reversed these effects. Mechanistically, Lnc-PRSS23-AS1 promoted YBX1 protein expression by acting as a molecular sponge for miR-3176. These findings highlight the Lnc-PRSS23-AS1/miR-3176/YBX1 axis as a driver of BC progression and suggest Lnc-PRSS23-AS1 as a potential therapeutic target for breast cancer treatment.
