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

MiR-216a-5p has been acknowledged as an oncogene and is known to be involved in the progression and metastasis of numerous cancer subtypes. However, the potential role of miR-216a-5p in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) remains to be elucidated. In the present study, reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction was performed to detect the expression levels of miR-216a-5p in RCC tissues. Cell counting kit-8, MTT, wound scratch, Transwell and flow cytometric assays were performed to establish the biological functions of miR-216a-5p in RCC. Functional experiments demonstrated that the expression of miR-216a-5p was upregulated in RCC (P<0.05) and miR-216a-5p mimics promoted cellular proliferation, viability and motility, and suppressed apoptosis. Conversely, miR-216a-5p inhibitor suppressed cellular proliferation, viability, motility and induced apoptosis. Based on these findings, it was concluded that miR-216a-5p may function as an oncogene in RCC. MiR-216a-5p target genes need to be explored and the potential of miR-216a-5p to be used as a diagnostic or a prognostic biomarker for RCC needs to be validated by future research.
