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 (miRs) are short endogenous non-coding RNAs that act as posttranscriptional regulatory factors of gene expression. Downregulation of miR-1 has been reported in gastric cancer; however, the mechanisms underlying its functions via target genes in gastric cancer remain largely unknown. The purpose of this study was to investigate the mechanism by which miR-1 inhibits gastric cancer cell proliferation and migration. The effects of miR-1 on gastric cancer cell proliferation and migration were determined by MTT and wound-healing assays. Cell protein expression of the miR-1 target gene MET was analyzed by Western blotting. Finally, MET expression was evaluated by immunohistochemistry in a stomach tumor tissue microarray (TMA). Ectopic expression of miR-1 inhibited proliferation and migration in both AGS and SGC-7901 gastric cancer cell lines. miR-1 directly targets the MET gene and downregulates its expression. MET siRNA also inhibited proliferation and migration in both cell lines. Immunohistochemistry revealed significantly higher MET expression levels in gastric cancer tissues compared with matched adjacent non-cancer tissues. These findings indicate that the miR-1/MET pathway is a potential therapeutic target due to its crucial role in gastric cancer cell proliferation and migration.
