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 can regulate many biological functions. miR-122-5p has a tumor suppressor function through different molecular pathways. Also, our second hit, ADAM10, targeted by miR-122-5p, is a major determinant of HER2 shedding causing that trastuzumab cannot bind to HER2 receptors. Therefore, our analysis upon ADAM10 expression and miR-122-5p was a good point to understand molecular mechanism of breast cancer. In our study, we investigated the expression profiles of miR-122-5p and its target ADAM10 in 71 breast cancer patients. Immunohistochemical analysis of ER, PR and HER2 gene products was used to categorize tumors in patients. Expression data and immunohistochemical findings were evaluated to comment on the relationship between miR-122-5p and ADAM10. ADAM10 expression was higher in tumor than that of normal tissue but miR-122-5p expression was lower in tumor than that of normal tissue. The expression pattern in HER2+ patients was reverse of the overall result. It can be explained like that miR-122-5p expression increases especially in HER2+ cancer cell to suppress ADAM10 shedding activity on HER2 receptor. However, increase in expression of tumor suppressor miR-122-5p is not enough to inhibit ADAM10. All in all, we can think miR-122-5p as potential regulator of ADAM10 and trastuzumab resistance. Since if we increase miR-122-5p activity together with trastuzumab administration, then HER2+ breast cancer cells may overcome trastuzumab resistance by inhibiting ADAM10 shedding activity on HER2 receptors and increase the efficiency of trastuzumab.
