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

Fas is ubiquitously expressed on a variety of cells and triggers apoptosis, which have critical roles in the immune system. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been recently identified as regulators that modulate target gene expression and are involved in diverse biological processes, such as cell proliferation and apoptosis. This study was undertaken to investigate the contribution of miRNA in the regulation of Fas expression and Fas-mediated apoptosis. Bioinformatics analysis indicated that Fas was a potential target of let-7/miR-98 family. Indeed ectopic expression of let-7/miR-98 reduced, whereas knockdown of endogenous let-7/miR-98 increased the expression of Fas at both mRNA and protein levels. Let-7/miR-98 was verified to target Fas 3' untranslated region directly by site-directed gene mutagenesis and reporter gene assay. More importantly, introduction of let-7/miR-98 could decrease the sensitivity to Fas-induced apoptosis. Furthermore, let-7/miR-98 expression was reduced in activation-induced cell death process, accompanied by increased expression of Fas. In conclusion, our study first demonstrated that let-7/miR-98 regulated Fas expression and the sensitivity of Fas-mediated apoptosis.
