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

The present study aimed to further explore the molecular mechanisms of miRNA-223 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Data prospectively collected from NSCLC patients and volunteers from March 2016 to MayMAP2016 at Tsinghua Changgung Hospital were analyzed. Cell proliferation was measured using MTT assay, while cell apoptosis and caspase-3/9 activity were measured using flow cytometry and caspase-3/9 activity kit. Bax, EGFR, PI3K and p-Akt protein were also investigated using western blotting. The results revealed that the serum levels of miRNA-223 in NSCLC patients were downregulated. In an inMAPvitro model, over-expression of miRNA-223 induced apoptosis while reducing cell proliferation. In contrast, downregulation of the expression of miRNA-223 inhibited apoptosis whereas it increased cell proliferation. Meanwhile, overexpression of miRNA-223 suppressed the protein expression of EGFR, PI3K and p-Akt in NSCLC cells. An EGFR inhibitor promoted the anticancer effects of miRNA-223 in NSCLC cells through the EGFR/PI3K/AKT pathway. Meanwhile, a PI3K inhibitor increased the anticancer effects of miRNA-223 in NSCLC cells through the PI3K/AKT pathway. Thus, a new pathway has been identified in the present study, and application of miRNA-223 may induce the apoptosis of NSCLC through the PI3K/AKT pathway by EGFR.
