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 purpose of this study was to explore the role of miR-203 in colorectal cancer (CRC) and evaluate the correlation between miR-203 and BIRC5. The expressions of miR-203 in the tissues of 122 CRC patients (with non-tumor tissues as controls) and those from 30 healthy donors were detected by TaqMan® MicroRNA assay. BIRC5s expressions in CRC and non-tumor tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry. Significantly less miR-203 was expressed in CRC tissues (P < 0.05) than in non-tumor tissues. Furthermore, low expression level of miR-203 was correlated with distant metastasis (DM), lymph node metastasis (LNM), and TNM stage (P < 0.05), but there were no significant differences between tumor size or gender. The positive expression rates of BIRC5 in CRC and non-tumor tissues were 73.77 % (90/122) and 30.32 % (37/122), respectively. The expression intensity of BIRC5 in CRC was significantly higher than that of non-tumor tissues (P < 0.05). It was significantly correlated with DM, LNM, and TNM stage (P < 0.05). Finally, miR-203 expression was negatively associated with that of BIRC5 (r = -0.8150, P < 0.05). In conclusion, miR-203 was down-regulated in CRC tissues and involved in the onset and progression of CRC. The expressions of miR-203 and BIRC5 in CRC were significantly negatively correlated, suggesting that BIRC5 may be regulated by miR-203. miR-203 is a potential suppressor and predictive biomarker for CRC.
