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 insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-axis has been paradigmatically involved in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tumor initiation, progression and drug resistance. Consequently, members of the IGF-axis and most importantly, IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R) have been considered as intriguing targets for HCC therapy. Few miRNAs have been recently reported to be associated with IGF-1R regulation. The present study aimed to investigate the role of microRNA (miRNA/miR)-486-5p in the regulation of IGF-1R and its downstream signaling cascades. miR-486-5p was markedly downregulated in hepatitis C virus-induced HCC tissues and Huh-7 cells. Forcing the expression of miR-486-5p in Huh-7 cells resulted in the repression of IGF-1R, mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) and c-Myc mRNA levels. Ectopic expression of miR-486-5p in Huh-7 cells markedly repressed cellular viability, proliferation, migration and clonogenicity in a similar pattern to IGF-1R small interfering RNAs, and were evaluated using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide, BrdU incorporation, wound healing and colony forming assays, respectively. Overall, the study findings demonstrated that miR-486-5p acts as a tumor suppressor in HCC through the repression of essential members of the IGF-axis, including IGF-1R and its downstream mediators mTOR, STAT3 and c-Myc.
