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

backgroundGastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies worldwide. Recent studies have shown that microRNAs play crucial roles in regulating cellular proliferation process in gastric cancer. MicroRNA-29c (miR-29c) acts as a tumor suppressor in different kinds of tumors.

methodsQuantitative PCR was performed to evaluate miR-29c expression level in 67 patient gastric cancer tissues and 9 gastric cancer cell lines. The effects of miR-29c were explored by proliferation assay, soft agar colony formation assay, apoptosis and cell cycle analysis using flow cytometry. The target gene was predicted by bioinformatic algorithms and validated by dual luciferase reporter assay and Western blot analysis.

resultsIn this study, we demonstrate that miR-29c is down-regulated in gastric cancer tissues and cell lines. We indicate that overexpression of miR-29c inhibits cell proliferation, promotes apoptosis and arrests cell cycle at G1/G0 phase. We additionally show that miR-29c exerts these effects by targeting Nuclear autoantigenic sperm protein (NASP). Moreover, depletion of NASP can elite the phenotypes caused by miR-29c.

conclusionsThese data suggest that miR-29c inhibits proliferation in gastric cancer and could potentially serve as an early biomarker and a novel therapy target.
