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

backgroundPrevious studies have shown that lncRNA LINC00662 plays an important role in pathogenesis of malignancies. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the regulatory mechanism of LINC00662 in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).

methodsIn this study, the regulatory mechanism of LINC00662 was investigated by RT-qPCR. MTT, transwell and dual luciferase reporter assays.

resultsUpregulation of LINC00662 was found in ESCC and associated with worse clinical outcomes in ESCC patients. More importantly, knockdown of LINC00662 restrained cell proliferation, migration and invasion in ESCC. In addition, LINC00662 acts as a molecular sponge for miR-340-5p in ESCC, and miR-340-5p directly targets HOXB2. HOXB2 expression can be positively regulated by LINC00662 in ESCC. Furthermore, HOXB2 downregulation or miR-340-5p overexpression weakened the carcinogenesis of LINC00662 in ESCC.

conclusionsLncRNA LINC00662 promotes the progression of ESCC by upregulating HOXB2 by sponging miR-340-5p.
