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

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most prevalent type of kidney cancer in adults, accompanied by an increasing incidence rate worldwide. We found that SBF2-AS1 was a differentially expressed long-noncoding RNA (lncRNA) in ccRCC through the microarray-based expression analyses. The aim of the present study was to explore the role of SBF2-AS1 in ccRCC development by assessing its effects on cellular processes and further investigate the underlying mechanism. SBF2-AS1 was found to be highly expressed in ccRCC tissues and cells. Ectopic expression and knockdown of SBF2-AS1 and miR-338-3p were performed in ccRCC 768-O cells to explore their effects on cell proliferation, migration, invasion, apoptosis and autophagy by EdU assay, scratch test, Transwell assay, calcein-AM/PI, and GFP-LC3 immunofluorescence assays, respectively. The interactions among SBF2-AS1, miR-338-3p and ETS1 were analyzed using dual-luciferase reporter, RIP and RNA pull-down assays. SBF2-AS1 specifically bound to miR-338-3p and inhibited its expression. Moreover, ETS1 was targeted by miR-338-3p. The knockdown of SBF2-AS1 or ETS1 or overexpression of miR-338-3p resulted in reduced cell proliferation, migration and invasion but elevated cell apoptosis and autophagy. In vivo experiments verified the tumor-suppressive role of silencing SBF2-AS1 in tumor growth of nude mice xenografted with ccRCC cells. Thus, silencing SBF2-AS1 exerted suppressive effects on ccRCC by elevating miR-338-3p and suppressing ETS1.
