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

Medulloblastomas (MB) are the most common malignant neoplasms of the central nervous system in children. Although the molecular basis of medulloblastoma has received considerable attention over the past decade, the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms of medulloblastoma initiation, maintenance, and progression remain unclear. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNAs that function as key regulators of diverse biological processes by exerting negative gene regulation at the post-transcriptional level. Emerging evidence indicates that miRNAs play an important role in the development of human cancers; miRNA deregulation results in altered activities of downstream tumor suppressors, oncogenes, and other signaling molecules. In this review, we comprehensively discuss the versatile roles of miRNAs in medulloblastoma and their potential applications in the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of this malignancy. As a rapidly evolving field of basic and biomedical sciences, miRNA research will certainly have a revolutionary impact on the management of medulloblastoma.
