miR-136 Inhibits Malignant Progression of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cells by Targeting Cyclooxygenase 2.
Article in Oncology research, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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.
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 a vital role in regulating tumor progression. Dysregulated miR-136 expression was linked to the development of various human cancers. In the present study, we investigated the expression and relationship of miR-136 and COX2 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) using relevant experiments, involving CCK-8, Transwell assay, and luciferase reporter assay. We demonstrated that miR-136 expression is obviously decreased in HCC tissues and cells, and negatively correlated with the expression of COX2 mRNA. In vitro assay revealed that overexpression of miR-136 significantly changed the expression of proliferation- and metastasis-related proteins and inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of HepG2 and Hep3B cells. Dual-luciferase reporter assay validated that the 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) of COX2 is a direct target of miR-136. Furthermore, COX2 siRNA partially enhanced the miR-136 overexpression-induced inhibitory effects. In conclusion, miR-136 was vital in the regulation of HCC cell proliferation and metastasis by targeting COX2. Thus, our findings provided novel evidence that miR-136 might be recommended as a potential target for the diagnosis and treatment of HCC patients.
