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

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains one of the most common types of malignancy with high mortality and morbidity rates. Previous studies have suggested that microRNAs (miRs) serve pivotal functions in various types of tumor. The aim of the present study was to assess the association between miR-34a expression and HCC cell migration and invasion, and the potential underlying mechanisms. The miR-34a overexpression vector or scramble control was transfected into human Hep3B and Huh7 cell lines. Transwell assays, and Matrigel and wound healing assays were used to detect the effects of miR-34a expression on HCC cell invasion and migration, respectively. The expression of miR-34a and the mRNA expression of other associated proteins were detected using quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, and protein levels were measured using western blot analysis. Compared with the control, miR-34a expression was significantly downregulated in Hep3B and Huh7 cells, but this was reversed by the transfection with exogenous miR-34a (P<0.01). The number of migrated or invaded cells was significantly reduced by the overexpression of miR-34a in Hep3B or Huh7 cells (P<0.01). The expression of sirtuin 1 was upregulated, while the level of acetylate-p53 was downregulated by overexpression of miR-34a. Taken together, the results of the present study suggested that the overexpression of miR-34a may have suppressed HCC metastasis via inhibited cell migration and invasion.
