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

backgroundsThe purpose of this study was to investigate clinical role and functional effects of miR-431 expression in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC).

methodsExpression of miR-431 in PTC patient tissue samples and plasma samples was examined by using qRT-PCR methods. Cell migration and invasion capacity were evaluated using transwell assays. Western blot analysis was performed to detect protein expression after miR-431 overexpression in PTC cells.

resultsWe demonstrated that miR-431 expression was lower in PTC tissues and plasma samples compared to their corresponding controls. MiR-431 expression was particularly lower in PTC patients with lymph node (LN) metastasis. In vitro, miR-431 overexpression significantly inhibited cell migration, invasion and EMT process by upregulating E-cadherin and downregulating Vimentin expression. Additionally, wedemonstrated that miR-431 overexpression suppressed Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway by downregulating Gli1 expression.

conclusionOur results indicated that miR-431 could serve as a predictor for PTC patients with positive lymph node metastasis and a potential target of PTC treatment.
