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

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been reported to be implicated in various biological and pathological processes. However, the function and mechanism of XIST in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) remains unknown. The levels of XIST, miR-599, and TLR4 were tested by RT-qPCR. VSMCs and human mononuclear cells (U937) treated with ox-LDL were used as atherosclerosis (AS) cell models. The CCK-8 assay was adopted to detect cell viability. Cell apoptosis was examined by the TUNEL assay. A dual-luciferase reporter assay was employed to investigate the interaction between miR-599 and XIST or TLR4. In this research, we uncovered that the XIST level was elevated in the serum of AS patients and ox-LDL-treated AS cell models. Functional analysis revealed that XIST depletion restrained cell proliferation, while induced the apoptosis in AS cell models. Besides, miR-599 was verified to be a direct downstream target of XIST and miR-599 inhibitor reversed the effects of XIST knockdown on AS progression. Finally, we demonstrated that XIST increased TLR4 expression by serving as a ceRNA of miR-599. All these findings manifested the role of the XIST/miR-599/TLR4 axis in AS development.
