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

objectivesTo evaluate the regulatory effects of lncRNA LINC00261 on proliferation, invasion, and metastasis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cells.

methodsThe differentially expressed RNAs in ESCC were identified using the GSE149612 dataset from the GEO database. PCR was used to detect LINC00261 expression levels in clinical ESCC and normal esophageal tissue samples and in multiple ESCC cell lines and normal esophageal epithelial cells (HEEC). In ESCC cells, the effects of overexpression of LINC00261 on cell proliferation, invasion, metastasis and apoptosis were analyzed using CCK-8 assay, clone formation assay, Transwell assay and flow cytometry. The potential targets of LINC00261 were predicted using bioinformatics tools including ENCORI and verified using dual-luciferase reporter assay and Western blotting. The effects of LINC00261 overexpression on ESCC were confirmed in a nude mouse model bearing ESCC xenograft.

resultsAnalysis of the GSE149612 dataset revealed significantly lower LINC00261 expression in ESCC tissues and cell lines. In cultured ESCC cells, LINC00261 overexpression markedly suppressed cell proliferation, invasion, and metastasis and promoted cell apoptosis. Dual-luciferase reporter assays confirmed that LINC00261 targets the miR-23a-3p/ZNF292 axis. In the tumor-bearing mouse model, LINC00261 overexpression significantly inhibited ESCC xenograft proliferation and metastasis.

conclusionsLINC00261 suppresses ESCC progression by targeting the miR-23a-3p/ZNF292 axis, suggesting a potential therapeutic strategy for ESCC treatment.
