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

Upregulation or downregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) has been identified in human cervical cancer (CC). However, the character and function of miR-378 in CC remains unknown. In the present study, the authors demonstrated that miR-378 was upregulated in CC used the reverse transcriptase-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) assay, and promoted cell proliferation by accelerating the progress of cell cycle and repressing cell apoptosis in CC cells. The predicted target genes of miR-378 were determined by enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) reporter assays, RT-qPCR assay and western blot analysis. miR-378 suppressed the expression of suppression of tumorigenicity 7-like (ST7L) by targeting the 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) of ST7L mRNA in HeLa and SiHa cells. ST7L was downregulated in CC using the RT-qPCR assay, and the malignant phenotype of HeLa and SiHa cells were inhibited by ST7L overexpression. In addition, miR-378 activated the Wnt/β-catenin pathway by targeting ST7L in CC cells. In short, miR-378 functions as an onco-miRNA by directly downregulating ST7L mRNA and protein level in HeLa and SiHa cells, and serves important roles in the malignancy of CC.
