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 role of miRNAs in the radiosensitivity of glioma cells and the underlying mechanism is still far from clear. In the present study, we detected six downregulated and seven upregulated miRNAs in the serum after radiotherapy compared with paired serum samples before radiotherapy via miRNA panel PCR. Among these, miR-17-5p was highly reduced (fold change = -4.21). Further, we validated the levels of miR-17-5p in all serum samples with qRT-PCR. In addition, statistical analysis suggested that a reduced miR-17-5P level was positively associated with advanced clinical stage of glioma, incidence of relapse, and tumor differentiation. Moreover, we provided evidence that irradiation markedly activated autophagy and decreased miR-17-5p in the glioma cell line. Further, we demonstrated that irradiation-induced autophagy activation was mediated by beclin-1, and downregulation of beclin-1 via siRNA significantly abolished the irradiation-activated autophagy. Interestingly, we demonstrated that miR-17-5p could directly target beclin-1 via luciferase gene reporter assay. Exotic expression of miRNA-17-5p decreased autophagy activity in vitro. In nude mice, miRNA-17-5p upregulation sensitized the xenograft tumor to irradiation and suppressed irradiation-induced autophagy. Finally, pharmacal inhibition of autophagy markedly enhanced the cytotoxicity of irradiation in RR-U87 cells.
