Genetic variant in miR-21 binding sites is associated with colorectal cancer risk.
Article in Journal of cellular and molecular medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within binding sites of microRNAs (miRNAs) could modify cancer susceptibility by changing the binding affinity of miRNAs on their target mRNA 3'-untranslated regions (UTRs). MicroRNA-21 (miR-21) is involved in the development of colorectal cancer. However, the relationship between SNPs within the binding sites of miR-21 and colorectal cancer risk has not been widely investigated. A case-control study including 1147 patients and 1203 controls was performed to evaluate the association of SNPs in miR-21 binding sites and colorectal cancer risk. Dual-luciferase reporter assays and functional assays were performed to evaluate the effects of miR-21. The SNP rs6504593 C allele conferred an increased risk of colorectal cancer compared with the T allele in an additive model (odds ratio [OR] = 1.19, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.04-1.36, P = 0.011). Dual-luciferase reporter assays demonstrated that the rs6504593 T allele negatively post-transcriptionally regulated IGF2BP1 by altering the binding affinity of miR-21. Additionally, colorectal cancer cells transiently transfected with miR-21 mimics promoted cell proliferation and suppressed apoptosis, whereas inhibition of miR-21 decreased cell growth. These data suggest that the miR-21 binding site SNP rs6504593 in the IGF2BP1 3'-UTR may alter IGF2BP1 expression and contribute to colorectal cancer risk.
