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

SMAD7 is a key inhibitor of transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) receptor signaling, which regulates the alteration of cancer cell invasiveness through epithelial-mesenchymal cell conversion. Since microRNAs (miRNAs) play a potential role in the tumorigenesis, cancer cell growth and metastases of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), determination of the involved miRNAs that may regulate SMAD7-mediated OSCC cell invasion appears to be one important question. Here, we found that the levels of miR-497 were significantly increased and the levels of SMAD7 were significantly decreased in OSCC specimens, compared to the paired adjacent non-tumor tissue. Moreover, miR-497 and SMAD7 inversely correlated in OSCC specimens. The 5-year survival of the patients with higher miR-497 levels in the resected OSCC was worse than those high miR-497 levels. Bioinformatics analyses showed that miR-497 targeted the 3'-UTR of SMAD7 mRNA to inhibit its translation, which was proved by luciferase reporter assay. Furthermore, miR-497 overexpression increased SMAD7-suppressed cell invasion, while miR-497 depletion decreased SMAD7-suppressed cell invasion in OSCC cells, in both a transwell cell invasion assay and a scratch would healing assay. Together, our data suggest that suppression of miR-497 in OSCC cells may promote cancer cell invasion via suppression of SMAD7, and highlight miR-497 as an intriguing therapeutic target to prevent OSCC metastases.
