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

Neuroblastoma, a malignant embryonal tumor of the sympathetic nervous system, is the most common solid extracranial malignancy of childhood and accounts for 15 % of all childhood cancer deaths. The biological behavior of neuroblastoma is extensively heterogeneous, ranging from spontaneous regression to rapid progression despite multimodal aggressive therapy. Although the molecular basis of neuroblastoma has received considerable attention over the past decade, elucidating the mechanisms for the aggressive progression of neuroblastoma is needed for improving the efficacy of treatment. miRNAs (microRNAs) are small non-coding RNA molecules generally 19-22 nucleotides in length. miRNAs regulate 60 % of human gene expression at the post-transcriptional level by targeting regions of sequence complementarity on the 3'-untranslated regions (3'-UTRs) of specific mRNAs. miRNAs can either cause degradation of mRNAs or can inhibit their translation and therefore play major roles in normal growth and development. miRNA dysregulation has oncogenic or tumor-suppressive functions in virtually all forms of cancer, including neuroblastoma. The present review highlights the current insights on dysregulated miRNAs in neuroblastoma and on their roles in the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of this malignancy. As a rapidly evolving field of basic and biomedical sciences, miRNA research holds a great potential to impact on the management of neuroblastoma.
