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

backgroundAberrant expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) has been implicated in the etiopathogenesis and development of various cancers. Drosha and Dicer are the main components of the miRNA biosynthesis machine. Another enzyme, DGCR8, is the assistant of Drosha in the processing complex. Here, we tried to evaluate the mRNA transcript level of Drosha, Dicer, and DGCR8 genes in involved tissues from patients with gastric cancer.

methodsFifty tumoral and their marginal tissues, as the control group, were obtained from patients with gastric cancer. After RNA extraction from tissues and cDNA synthesis, quantification of mRNA expression of Drosha, Dicer, and DGCR8 was conducted using SYBR Green master mix and real-time PCR.

resultsIt was observed that mRNA expression levels of Drosha, Dicer, and DGCR8 were significantly upregulated in tumoral tissues compared with marginal tissues. Upregulation of these genes was not correlated with clinical manifestations of the patients.

conclusionsUpregulation of Drosha, Dicer, and DGCR8 plays a role in the development of cancer, probably through dysregulated the expression level of miRNAs.
