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

MicroRNA (miR)-29a has been implicated in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the mechanism remains largely unclear. LASP1, a cAMP- and cGMP-dependent signaling protein, was recently found to promote proliferation and aggressiveness in NSCLC. However, the regulatory mechanism of LASP1 expression in NSCLC, as well as the relationship between LASP1 and miR-29a, has never been previously studied. In this study, we found that miR-29a was remarkably downregulated and low expression of miR-29a was associated with the malignant progression of NSCLC. Moreover, the expression of LASP1 was markedly increased in NSCLC tissues and cell lines. Bioinformatics analysis and luciferase reporter assay data further identified LASP1 as a target gene of miR-29a, and the expression of LASP1 was negatively mediated by miR-29a at the post-transcriptional level in NSCLC cells. Overexpression of miR-29a reduced the proliferation, migration, and invasion of NSCLC cells, just as the effects of LASP1 knockdown. Moreover, overexpression of LASP1 attenuated the suppressive effect of miR-29a on the malignant phenotypes of NSCLC cells. In addition, upregulation of miR-29a decreased the growth of A549 cells in nude mice and protected the animals from tumor-induced death. Therefore, we demonstrate that miR-29a plays a suppressive role in NSCLC via targeting LASP1, suggesting that the miR-29a/LASP1 axis may become a promising therapeutic target for NSCLC.
