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

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most malignant glioma, unveiling the underlying mechanisms of its aggressiveness could promote the discovery of potential targets for effective treatment. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important participants in both development and disease, its involvement in cancers has long been recognized. In this study, we investigated the role of miRNA-373 (miR-373) in GBM cell line U251, demonstrated that although miR-373 does not affect cell growth of U251, it inhibits migration and invasion of U251. Forced expression of miR-373 down-regulates the expressions CD44 and TGFBR2, while knockdown of CD44 and TGFBR2 presents the similar phenotype as miR-373 overexpression, suggesting that CD44 and TGFBR2 are functional targets of miR-373, down-regulation of CD44 and TGFBR2 by miR-373 are partly responsible for the migration, and invasion suppressive role of miR-373 in U251.
