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

backgroundAs one of the hallmarks of cancer, chemoresistance hinders curative cancer chemotherapy in osteosarcoma (OS). MicroRNAs (miRNAs) act as key regulators of gene expression in diverse biological processes including the multi-chemoresistance of cancers.

methodsBased on the CCK8 experiments, we performed an RNA-seq-based miR-omic analysis of osteosarcoma (OS) cells (a multi-chemosensitive OS cell line G-292 and a multi-chemoresistant OS cell line SJSA-1) to detect the levels of miR-20a-5p. We predicted

resultsWe found that the miR-20a-5p level was higher in G-292 cells than in SJSA-1 cells. Forced expression of miR-20a-5p counteracted OS chemoresistance in both cell culture and tumor xenografts in nude mice. As one of miR-20a-5p's targets, SDC2 was found to mediate the miR-20a-5p-induced repression of OS chemoresistance.

conclusionsOur results suggest that miR-20a-5p and SDC2 contribute to OS chemoresistance. The key players in the miR-20a-5p/SDC2 axis may be a potential diagnostic biomarker and therapeutic target for OS patients.
