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 (miRNAs) are a class of post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression, and AGO2 is essential for miRNA activity. In this study, we focused on the regulation of AGO2 by miR-346 and the consequences in cervical cancer cells. miR-346 enhanced the expression of AGO2, resulting in the increased activity of other miRNAs and contributing to the malignancy of HeLa cells. GRSF1 participated in the regulation of AGO2 by miR-346, and the middle sequence of miR-346 was vital for the synergy effect of miR-346 and GRSF1. We determined that miR-346 promoted the migration and invasion of HeLa cells. In summary, we are the first to report that AGO2 is regulated positively by miRNA and that GRSF1 participates in the miRNA pathway.
