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 (miRNAs) may serve important roles in the regulation of human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell growth and apoptosis. To the best of our knowledge, the present study was the first to explore the role of miRNA-133a/epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in regulating NSCLC cell growth and apoptosis via the AKT/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling pathway. It was determined that miRNA-133a expression was lower in NSCLC tissue than in the adjacent mucosae. Additionally, EGFR expression in the NSCLC tissue was higher compared with in the adjacent mucosae. Furthermore, the upregulation of miRNA-133a in NSCLC cells suppressed cell growth and induced apoptosis. Upregulating miRNA-133a also increased caspase-3 protein expression, while suppressing that of EGFR, phosphorylated (p)-AKT and p-ERK in NSCLC cells. Therefore, the results of the current study demonstrated that miRNA-133a downregulates EGFR expression in NSCLC via the AKT/ERK signaling pathway. These findings provide insights into the function of miRNA-133a in NSCLC, as well as into the molecular mechanisms underlying the miRNA-133a-mediated downregulation of the EGFR/AKT/ERK signaling pathway in NSCLC.
