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

objectiveEndometrial carcinoma (EC) ranks among the three most prevalent malignant tumors affecting the female reproductive system. DEPDC1-AS1 is a newly identified lncRNA, and its mechanism of action in EC remains to be explored.

methods100 hyperplasia and 100 EC patients were included. The abundance of DEPDC1-AS1, miR-508-3p, and SQSTM1 was quantified by qRT-PCR. Kaplan-Meier survival curve and Cox regression predicted prognostic factors. Pearson correlation was used to assess the relationships among the molecular markers. Cell proliferation was assessed with the CCK-8 assay, and migration/invasion with Transwell assays. The regulatory interactions were predicted by bioinformatics and validated through dual-luciferase reporter assays and co-transfection experiments.

resultsDEPDC1-AS1 was enhanced in EC tissues and cell lines and identified as an independent prognostic factor. Its expression was associated with FIGO stage and cervical invasion, while lower DEPDC1-AS1 levels correlated with improved survival outcomes. Functional experiments showed that silencing DEPDC1-AS1 inhibited EC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Mechanistically, DEPDC1-AS1 sponges miR-508-3p, with a confirmed negative correlation between the two. DEPDC1-AS1 promoted EC cell aggressiveness by modulating miR-508-3p, which directly targets SQSTM1. SQSTM1 expression was negatively correlated with miR-508-3p and positively correlated with DEPDC1-AS1.

conclusionDEPDC1-AS1 may serve as a promising prognostic biomarker in EC. These findings suggest that DEPDC1-AS1 facilitates EC progression through the miR-508-3p, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target.
