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

Effective treatments for patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) have not yet been established. Novel approaches for identification of putative therapeutic targets for CRPC are needed. Analyses of RNA sequencing of microRNA (miRNA) expression revealed that miR-99a-3p (passenger strand) is significantly downregulated in several types of cancers. Here, we aimed to identify novel miR-99a-3p regulatory networks and therapeutic targets for CRPC. Ectopic expression of miR-99a-3p significantly inhibited cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in PCa cells. Non-SMC condensin I complex subunit G (NCAPG) was a direct target of miR-99a-3p in PCa cells. Overexpression of NCAPG was detected in CRPC clinical specimens and was significantly associated with shorter disease-free survival and advanced clinical stage. Knockdown of NCAPG inhibited cancer cell aggressiveness. The passenger strand miR-99a-3p acted as an antitumor miRNA in naïve PCa and CRPC. NCAPG was regulated by miR-99a-3p, and its overexpression was involved in CRPC pathogenesis. Involvement of passenger strand of miRNA in cancer pathogenesis is novel concept, and identification of antitumor miRNA regulatory networks in CRPC might be provided novel prognostic markers and therapeutic targets for this disease.
