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

backgroundAccumulating evidence indicates that long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) miR17HG plays important roles in tumorigenesis in various cancers. However, its underlying effect on bladder cancer (BC) remains to be explored.

objectiveThis study aims to elucidate the function and molecular mechanisms of lncRNA miR17HG in the proliferation and metastasis of BC.

methodsBC tissues and matched para-cancerous tissues were collected from our hospital. Oncology functional assays, quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction, and western blotting were conducted to confirm the role of lncRNA miR17HG in BC development. The interations among lncRNA miR17HG, miR-144-3p and AXIN2 were verified via luciferase reporter assay. Nude mouse subcutaneous tumor models were established to investigate the effect of lncRNA miR17HG on BC tumor growth.

resultsLncRNA miR17HG and miR-144-3p were significantly upregulated, while AXIN2 was downregulated in BC tissues. Knockdown of lncRNA miR17HG or inhibition of miR-144-3p suppressed cell proliferation, migration and invasion, whereas miR-144-3p mimic exerted the opposite effects. Mechanistically, lncRNA miR17HG sponged miR-144-3p to regulate the expression of AXIN2. Furthermore, lncRNA miR17HG knockdown effectively suppressed tumor xenograft growth in mice.

conclusionIn summary, this study identifies a novel lncRNA miR17HG/miR-144-3p/AXIN2 pathway in BC and demonstrate that this regulatory axis may serve as a promising therapeutic target for BC.
