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

objectiveLong noncoding (lnc)RNAs regulate multiple biological processes including cancer. Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a common malignancy with poor prognosis. We aimed to identify the function of lncRNA HOXA10 antisense RNA (HOXA10-AS) and its clinical significance.

methodsWe used differential expression analysis to identify aberrantly expressed lncRNAs associated with OSCC. We identified key genes related to HOXA10-AS and their biological functions using bioinformatics tools and functional enrichment analyses. We predicted the function of HOXA10-AS using gene set enrichment and variation analyses and analyzed proliferation markers at the mRNA and protein levels. Finally, we silenced HOXA10-AS using antisense oligonucleotide and assessed proliferation ability using a cell counting kit (CCK8) and clone formation assays.

resultsIn total, 506 aberrantly expressed lncRNAs were identified. HOXA10-AS was identified as a risk factor for OSCC and its expression was positively associated with tumor grade. We identified hub genes involved in regulating proliferation and predicted that HOXA10-AS is associated with an active cell cycle and increased proliferation. Silencing HOXA10-AS decreased proliferation in OSCC cell lines.

conclusionsHOXA10-AS is involved in cell proliferation and silencing it decreases proliferation. Thus, HOXA10-AS could serve as prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target for OSCC.
