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 (miRNAs/miRs) may have a crucial function in tumor metastasis through the regulation of a plethora of signaling pathways. Increasing evidence has shown that miR-199a is important in regulating the tumor metastasis of ovarian cancer, although the precise biological function of miR-199a is unclear at present. In the current study, it was observed that the expression levels of miR-199a were higher in OV2008 cells compared with C13* cells. However, lower levels of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) protein were detected by western blotting in the OV2008 cells compared with the C13* cells. The miR-199a levels were increased in the C13* cells using miR-199a mimics and the mTOR levels were observed to decrease. This may have resulted in a reversal of cisplatin resistance in the C13* cells. To test this hypothesis, the Renilla luciferase reporter gene system was used to analyze the mTOR levels. The results indicated that the expression levels of mTOR were significantly blocked by the increased miR-199a levels. When the miR-199a inhibitor was applied to decrease the miR-199a levels, it was observed that the mTOR expression levels were increased, while cisplatin-induced apoptosis was decreased in the OV2008 cells. The study concludes that miR-199a is able to reverse cisplatin resistance in human ovarian cancer cells through the inhibition of mTOR and that mTOR may be the target of miR-199a during this process.
