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

Bufalin is used to treat many patients with solid malignant tumors clinically. Bufalin could induce gastric cancer cell apoptosis via BAX. microRNA (miRNA) plays important roles in gene regulation. However, miRNA involving in bufalin inducing apoptosis of gastric cancer cells remains to futher research. To study the regulatory role of miRNA in bufalin induced cancer cell apoptosis. Firstly, we verifed that bufalin could induce gastric cancer cell apoptosis by inducing BAX expression. miR-298 was predicted as a regulator of BAX and further study verified Bax was a target gene of miR-298 by luciferase reporter assay. miR-298 could down-regulate BAX on mRNA and protein level in gastric cancer cells. miR-298 promoted cell proliferation and inhibited apoptosis of gastric cancer cells. It was also found that bufalin inhibited cell proliferation and promoted cell apoptosis by down-regualtion of miR-298. In summary, bufalin-associated miR-298 may indirectly be involved in cell proliferation and apoptosis by targeting BAX, pointing to use as a potential molecular target in gastric cancer therapy.
