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 previous study has demonstrated that epidermal growth factor (EGF) and EGF receptor (EGFR) signaling plays a critical role in the development of posterior capsule opacification (PCO) through regulating lens epithelial cells (LECs) proliferation. Recent studies have suggested that the residual LECs undergo proliferation and migration, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is the important cause of PCO formation after cataract surgery. EMT of LECs is considered to be playing a central role in the pathogenesis of PCO. In the present study, we investigated whether and how EGF may regulate EMT of LECs. First, we demonstrated that EGF and EGFR signaling induces Myc overexpression in primary human lens epithelial cells (HLECs). In turn, Myc overexpression could inhibit miR-26b by recruitment of HDAC3. Consequently, the downregulated expression of miR-26b increased the expression of EZH2 in primary HLECs. Mechanistically, miR-26b directly controls EZH2 expression by targeting its 3'-UTR in HLECs by luciferase reporter assays. Finally, we demonstrated that EGF induces the expression of EMT markers in primary HLECs via a miR-26b-dependent mechanism. In summary, EGF activated Myc and Myc overexpression inhibited miR-26b by recruitment of HDAC3, which in turn induced the expression of EZH2 and promoted the progression of EMT in HLECs.
