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

Osteosarcoma is the most common primary malignant bone tumor type in children and adolescents under 20 years of age. Biological characteristics include invasiveness, metastasis, abnormal differentiation and loss of contact inhibition. microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in the transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation of target mRNAs. Previous studies have demonstrated that miR-218 inhibits tumor formation and progression in glioma, colon cancer and renal cell carcinoma; however, the mechanism of action of miR-218 in osteosarcoma has not been completely determined. In the present study, it was demonstrated that miR-218 exhibited low expression and targeted E2F2 in osteosarcoma cells. Additionally, overexpression of miR-218 inhibited osteosarcoma cell proliferation, with the opposite result occurring following the knockdown of miR-218. Furthermore, it was determined that miR-218 inhibited tumor formation and reduced the expression of E2F2 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen in nude mice. Collectively, the present data demonstrated that miR-218 serves an important role in suppressing the proliferation of osteosarcoma cells, potentially regulated by E2F2, which may provide a novel protein marker for the treatment of osteosarcoma.
