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

aimsThe present study is to investigate the effect of microRNA-146a (miR-146a) and ethnic factor in the occurrence of cervical cancer in Uygur women in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.

methodsA total of 620 pieces of cervical tissues were obtained between September 2010 and September 2013, including 208 cases of cervicitis, 207 cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, and 205 cases of cervical cancer. The relative expression of miR-146a in tissues was measured using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Polymerase chain reaction - restriction fragment length polymorphism was used to determine the genotypes of miR-146a (rs2910164). Differences between two groups and multiple groups were compared using t-test and one-factor analysis of variance, respectively. Comparison of genotype compositions and genetic balance examinations were performed using χ(2) test.

resultsUygur women had earlier age of marriage, more times of pregnancy, and more childbirths than Han women. The miR-146a (rs2910164) genotype composition was significantly different between Uygur and Han, with the ratio of GG genotype in Uygur being higher than that in Han. Logistic regression analysis showed that miR-146a (rs2910164) genotypes were significantly correlated to ethnic factor and tumor sizes. The expression of miR-146a was elevated in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and cervical cancer, especially for Uygur women, with the GG genotype being the most highly expressed.

conclusionsThe miR-146a (rs2910164) polymorphism is significantly correlated to ethnic factor and tumor diameters. miR-146a has differential expression in cervical tissues. Allele G of miR-146a (rs2910164) is related to the high expression of miR-146a, and the progression of cervical cancer.
