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

purposeTo explore the role of miR-33b in colorectal cancer (CRC) and the correlation between its expression and prognosis.

methodsThe expressions of miR-33b between CRC tissues and normal tissues were measured by real-time PCR. The effects of miR-33b on cell proliferation and cell cycle progression were detected by MTT assay, colony formation assay and flow cytometry. The potential regulations of miR-33b on multiple genes expression were verified by Western blot. Furthermore, the association of miR-33b with CRC clinicopathologic features and prognosis was analyzed by Chi-squared test and Kaplan-Meier tests.

resultsMiR-33b was downregulated in CRC compared with normal colorectal samples and miR-33b inhibited tumor cell growth and induced cell cycle arrest. Western blot assays and correlation analysis showed that miR-33b could regulate multiple growth-related genes. Moreover, the expression of miR-33b was associated with TNM stage and tumor size, and CRC patients with high miR-33b expression had a better prognosis.

conclusionOur data suggest that miR-33b functions as a tumor suppressor gene in CRC through regulating cell proliferation and cell cycle.
