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

The aim of our study is to identify microRNAs (miRNAs) that have significance in the prognosis and pathogenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The miRNAs differentially expressed in HCC were examined by using a human miRNA microarray dataset, and then the acquired candidates were screened by another microarray dataset. As a result, we got 25 miRNAs which were aberrantly expressed in cancer and meanwhile predicated distinct prognosis. Among them, miR-139-5p was down-regulated in HCC and its low expression in cancer tissue meant poor prognosis. Additionally, we demonstrated that its low expression was also related to several clinicopathologic characteristics such as vein invasion, BCLC stage, p-AKT expression, and pIGFR1 expression. In vitro, it has been discovered that treatment of HCC cells with a miR-139-5p mimic lead to inhibition of cell growth and migration. Moreover, luciferase assay showed that KPNA4 was not the direct target of miR-139-5p. Ectopic expression of miR-139-5p has not repressed the expression of KPNA4, but inhibited the nuclear import of NF-κB and phosphorylation of Akt. In conclusion, for the first time, we identify 25 deregulated miRNAs that are associated with prognosis and prove that miR-139-5p functions as a tumor suppressor in HCC and its low expression predicts poor prognosis.
