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

Background: As a fatal disease, the mechanism of pancreatic cancer is unclear. Urothelial carcinoma antigen 1(UCA1), a long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) that was first reported in bladder cancer, acts as an oncogene. However, the regulatory role and mechanism of UCA1 in pancreatic cancer remain unknown. This study aims to investigate the expression level and prognostic value of UCA1 in pancreatic cancer tissues, the effects and mechanism of UCA1 in regulating cell proliferation, apoptosis and metastasis. Methods: UCA1 expression levels in tissues were detected by in situ hybridization (ISH) and the prognostic value was evaluated by univariate and multivariate survival analysis. For Results: ISH staining revealed that UCA1 levels between cancer tissues (n=94) and tumor-adjacent tissues (n=73) did not show significant differences. Survival analysis indicated that high expression of UCA1 was an unfavorable prognosis factor for pancreatic cancer. Downregulation of UCA1 by siRNA significantly inhibited cell proliferation, decreased the capacities of cell migration and invasion, induced cell apoptosis, and inhibited EMT. Furthermore, we demonstrated that UCA1 positively regulated the expression of BRCC3 by inhibiting miR-582-5p. Rescue experiments indicated that either inhibiting the expression of miR-582-5p or enhancing expression of BRCC3 could partly attenuate the antitumor effects of downregulation of UCA1. Conclusion: UCA1 acted as an oncogene in pancreatic cancer by partly regulating miR-582-5p/BRCC3, which could be a new therapeutic target for pancreatic cancer.
