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

backgroundThe recent investigations have rendered microRNAs (miRs) as a novel biomarker in cancer research. In fact, alteration in miR expression may be associated with tumor suppression, tumorigenesis, metastasis, and poor prognosis in human breast cancer (BC).

objectivesThe aim of this clinical experimental study was to measure the miR-328 expression level in breast cancer tissues, at first. Then, we tried to find out any possible correlation between miR-328 and prognostic and predictive biomarkers in BC. Both of these two objectives were investigated for the first time; and we did not find any similar survey measuring the expression level of miR-328 in both tumor and non-tumor breast tissues. This research was conducted in Iran (Ahvaz, Khuzestan), between December 2013 and April 2014. Furthermore, we did not find any previous document investigating the correlation between miR-328 expression level and prognostic factors in BC. Due to the lack of similar studies intending to measure the expression level of miR-328 in tumor and adjacent non-tumor tissues, we decided to carry out a pilot study.

methodsWe measured the expression level of miR-328 by Poly (A) real-time PCR based on SYBR Green-I in 28 fresh samples of BC tissues and 28 samples of normal adjacent tissues, including invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC), invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC), and ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). We tried to attribute the results to clinicopathologic features such as status of estrogen and progesterone receptors (ER/PR), HER2/neu (HER2), P53 and also Ki67 labeling (Ki67-LI).

resultsThe results showed that the miR-328 median level of expression was 0.88 (2

conclusionsTherefore, it might be possible to consider miR-328 as an oncogene; but not necessarily an oncomiR, in human BC.
