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

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in several human cancers. Although miR-188 has been suggested to function as a tumor repressor in cancers, its precise role in glioma and the molecular mechanism remain unknown. In the present study, we investigated the effect of miR-188 on glioma and explored its relevant mechanisms. We found that the expression of miR-188 is dramatically downregulated in glioma tissues and cell lines. Subsequent investigation revealed that miR-188 expression was inversely correlated with β-catenin expression in glioma tissue samples. Using a luciferase reporter assay, β-catenin was determined to be a direct target of miR-188. Overexpression of miR-188 reduced β-catenin expression at both the mRNA and protein levels, and inhibition of miR-188 increased β-catenin expression. Moreover, we found that overexpression of miR-188 suppressed glioma cell proliferation and cell cycle G1-S transition, whereas inhibition of miR-188 promoted glioma cell proliferation. Importantly, silencing β-catenin recapitulated the cellular and molecular effects seen upon miR-188 overexpression, which included inhibiting glioma cell proliferation and G1-S transition. Taken together, our results demonstrated that miR-188 inhibits glioma cell proliferation by targeting β-catenin, representing an effective therapeutic strategy for glioma.
