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 important gene regulators that participate in tumorigenesis. Previous studies have implicated that miR-214 is a tumor suppressor that is capable of inhibiting human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell growth. However, the mechanism by which miR-214 suppresses tumor development remains unknown. In the present study, miR-214 was observed to suppress tumor proliferation by directly targeting E2F transcription factor 3 (E2F3) in HCC cells. Colony formation, cell cycle and proliferation assays were employed to study the tumor suppressor role of miR-214 in cell proliferation. In addition, western blotting and dual-luciferase reporter assays were used to evaluate whether E2F3 was a target of miR-214. The results of these analyses revealed that E2F3 was a novel target of miR-214. Furthermore, enhanced expression of miR-214 or silencing of E2F3 inhibited the proliferation of HCC SMMC-7721 cells. These findings suggest that miR-214 suppresses HCC growth by targeting E2F3, and may provide a novel approach for the treatment of human HCC.
