Review in Pharmacology & therapeutics, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 50 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled it.

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

MicroRNAs are master regulators of gene expression and control many biological pathways such as cell growth, differentiation and apoptosis. Deregulation of microRNA expression and activity results in a myriad of diseases including cancer. Recently, several reports have indicated that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in microRNAs and microRNA-target sites impact microRNA biology and associate with cancer risk, treatment response and outcome. In this review we will describe these findings and discuss the possible future of utilizing these SNPs as diagnostic and prognostic markers in the clinic.
