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

BACKGROUNDS AND

aimsGlioma accounts for the majority of primary malignant brain tumors in adults. Upregulation of microRNA-26a (miR-26a) has been observed in glioma. However, the biological function and molecular mechanism of miR-26a in glioma remain to be elucidated.

methodsGlioma cells stably overexpressing or down-expressing miR-26a were analyzed for both in vitro and in vivo biological functions. Novel target of miR-26a was identified by bioinformatics searching and molecular biological assays. Glioma specimens and normal brain tissues were analyzed for both expression levels of miR-26a and its target.

resultsForced expression of miR-26a in glioma cells significantly increased both growth rate and colony formation in vitro and tumor growth and angiogenesis in vivo, while reduced expression of miR-26a played opposite roles. MiR-26a directly targeted prohibitin (PHB) whose expression levels were downregulated in glioma specimens. The levels of miR-26a were inversely correlated with PHB expression levels in glioma samples and strongly correlated with clinical WHO grades of glioma.

conclusionThese results reveal that miR-26a regulates PHB and promotes glioma progression both in vitro and in vivo and that miR-26a and its target PHB are associated with glioma development, which can be helpful in developing microRNA-based treatment for glioma in the future.
