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

Esophageal carcinoma is one of the most common malignant tumors and the Kazakh national minority (ethnic) in Xinjiang (northwest of China) has been reported to be one of the highest incidence of Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) in the world. MicroRNA-203 (miR-203) was described as a tumor-suppressive miRNA in several cancers, but little study about the role of miR-203 in Kazakh ESCC. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the role of miR-203 in the occurrence and progression of Kazakh ESCC. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect miR-203 expression, and immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to examine P63 expression. The expression level of miR-203 in ESCC was significantly lower than that of cancer adjacent normal (CAN) samples (P < 0.05). Whereas the expression level of P63 in ESCC was significantly higher than that of CAN samples (P < 0.05), an inverse association between the expression of P63 and miR-203 was found but was not statistically significant (P > 0.05). These findings suggest that miR-203 is a tumor suppressor gene that plays an important role in inhibiting the occurrence of Kazakh ESCC in Xinjiang, China.
