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

backgroundProstate cancer (PCa) is one the most common malignant cancers in men. Micro-RNAs are a group of a noncoding small molecule, which plays critical roles in signalling pathways, metabolism, apoptosis and cancer development. The purpose of this study was to examine the possible association between the hsa-miR-499 (rs3746444) and hsa-miR-196a2 (rs11614913) gene polymorphisms with the risk of PCa.

methodsThe case-control investigation was performed on 300 peripheral blood samples, consisting of 150 patients with PCa and 150 healthy men without a family history of cancers. Genetic variations of hsa-miR-499 and hsa-miR-196a2 genes were assessed using the PCR-RFLP method.

resultsThe T/T + TC/CC genotype frequencies showed a significant association between has-mir499 (rs3746444 T>C) gene polymorphism with the risk of PCa (p = 0.027; OR 1.780; 95% CI 1.030-3.113). The genotype frequencies of hsa-miR-196a2 gene did not reveal a statistically significant difference between two groups (p > 0.05).

conclusionOur findings supported that hsa-miR-499 gene polymorphism significantly increased susceptibility to PCa and may be considered as a potential prognostic biomarker in PCa patients. The findings suggested that no correlation between hsa-miR-196a2 gene polymorphism and PCa susceptibility in an Iranian population.
