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

Aberrant expression of microRNA-92a (miR-92a) has been investigated in various cancers. However, the function and mechanism of miR-92a in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remain to be elucidated. Our data showed that miR-92a was evidently downregulated and methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase 2 (MTHFD2) was remarkably upregulated in AML cell lines HL-60 and THP-1. Dual luciferase reporter assay revealed that MTHFD2 was a direct target of miR-92a. Gain- and loss-of-function analysis demonstrated that MTHFD2 knockdown or miR-92a overexpression notably inhibited proliferation and promoted apoptosis of AML cell lines. Restoration of MTHFD2 expression reversed proliferation inhibition and apoptosis induction of AML cells triggered by miR-92a. Moreover, an implanted tumor model in mice indicated that miR-92a overexpression dramatically decreased tumor growth and MTHFD2 expression in vivo. Taken together, our results suggest that miR-92a inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis by directly regulating MTHFD2 expression in AML. miR-92a may act as a tumor suppressor in AML, providing a promising therapeutic target for AML patients.
