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

The incidence of vulvar squamous cell carcinoma (VSCC) has increased annually over the last decade. MicroRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) serve an important role in tumor progression and development. Our previous microarray studies have revealed that miR‑3147 was overexpressed in VSCC. However, its function and underlying mechanism in VSCC remain unknown. In the present study, it was confirmed by reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction that the expression of miR‑3147 was markedly upregulated in VSCC tissues. The increased expression of miR‑3147 was positively associated with the depth of invasion. The overexpression of miR‑3147 resulted in the promotion of vulvar cancer cell proliferation, migration, invasion, G1/S progression and invasion‑associated gene expression. miR‑3147 may participate in the process of epithelial‑mesenchymal transition and reduce the expressions of downstream target genes in the transforming growth factor‑β/Smad signaling pathway in A431 cells. The knockdown of Smad4 by small interfering RNA promoted malignant behaviours in A431 cells. In addition, miR‑3147 regulated Smad4 by directly binding to its 3' untranslated region. In conclusion, the results indicated that miR‑3147 may serve an oncogenic role in VSCC by targeting Smad4. miR‑3147 may represent a novel potential therapeutic target marker for VSCC.
