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

Despite the growing focus on microRNAs (miRNAs) as novel diagnostic tools and therapeutic targets in cancer, global characterization of miRNA expression patterns and their specific targets in melanoma has lagged. In this issue, Reuland et al. (2012) identify miR-26a as being specifically downregulated in human melanoma cells. They further establish Silencer of Death Domains as a novel target for miR-26a, which functionally mediates melanoma cell death. These findings suggest that miR-26a may serve as a promising novel therapy for subsets of melanoma.
