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

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant disorder characterized by the neoplastic growth of plasma cells in the bone marrow. MicroRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) modulate key regulatory cell pathways via their influence on target genes, and may serve a crucial function in tumorigenesis. Previous studies have indicated that the downregulation of miR-15a and miR-16 contributes to MM pathogenesis. However, the functional mechanisms of miR-15a and miR-16 in MM remain unclear. In the present study, potential target sites for miR-15a and miR-16 were identified on the calcineurin-binding protein 1 (CABIN1) mRNA sequence from analyses of previously published crosslinking, ligation and sequencing of hybrids data. Again-of-function study was also performed, which determined that miR-15a/16 directly targeted CABIN1 mRNA and negatively regulated the expression of CABIN1 at the mRNA and protein level in MM cells. A cell proliferation assay demonstrated that the upregulation of miR-15a and miR-16 inhibited the proliferation of MM cells via targeting CABIN1. miR-15a and miR-16 were significantly decreased in MM specimens, compared with in normal specimens, whereas CABIN1 mRNA levels were significantly higher in MM samples compared with in normal samples. CABIN1 mRNA levels were negatively correlated with miR-15a and miR-16 expression levels in MM tissues, as determined using Pearson's correlation coefficient analysis. The results of the present study indicate that the downregulation of miR-15a and miR-16 promotes tumor proliferation in MM by increasing CABIN1 expression. The present study may aid elucidation of the functions of miR-15a and miR-16 and their function in MM carcinogenesis.
