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

MicroRNAs (miRs) are have been demonstrated to serve important functions in the genesis of human cancer, including colorectal cancer (CRC). The role of miR-6852 in CRC remains unknown. In this study, it was demonstrated that miR-6852 was underexpressed in CRC tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues. Moreover, the expression of miR-6852 was negatively correlated with CRC metastasis, whereas positively correlated with patient prognosis. It was revealed that the overexpression of miR-6852 significantly inhibited the proliferation and invasion of CRC cells. miR-6852 overexpression reduced CRC cells in the S phase. TCF7 was identified to be a direct target of miR-6852 in CRC cells. Overexpression of miR-6852 significantly inhibited the mRNA and protein levels of TCF7 in CRC cells. Furthermore, TCF7 was highly expressed in CRC tissues and cell lines. TCF7 expression was negatively correlated with miR-6852 levels in CRC tissues. Finally, knockdown of TCF7 significantly suppressed the proliferation and invasion of CRC cells. Taken together, the results of the present study indicated that miR-6852 serves as a tumor suppressor in CRC through targeting TCF7.
