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

Accumulating data have shown that microRNAs are involved in the pathogenesis of cancer. miR-202 has been confirmed to be downregulated in several types of human cancer. However, the expression and biological role of miR-202 in osteosarcoma (OS) carcinogenesis and progression remain unclear. In this study, we demonstrated that miR-202 expression is significantly decreased in human OS cell lines and specimens. Restoration of miR-202 expression could inhibit OS cell proliferation, induce cell apoptosis, and suppress tumor growth in nude mice models. We subsequently identified the transcription factor Gli2 as a direct target of miR-202. Overexpression of Gli2 blocked the inhibitory function of miR-202. Taken together, our results indicate that miR-202 acts as a novel tumor suppressor to regulate OS cell proliferation and apoptosis through downregulating Gli2 expression.
