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

Cervical cancer is the second most frequent malignant neoplasm in women all over the world. MicroRNA-26b (miR-26b) has been reported to be downregulated and play a great role in many malignancies, nevertheless, there are scarce studies on cervical cancer. The purpose of the present study was to detect how miR-26b is involved in cervical carcinoma. Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was utilized to detect the expression levels of miR-26b and Jagged1 (JAG1) mRNA. Transwell assay was applied to calculate the cell migration and invasion capacity. Luciferase reporter assay was employed to determine JAG1 as a target of miR-26b. The results revealed that miR-26b is downregulated in cervical cancer tissues and cells compared with paracancerous tissues and normal cervical epithelial cells. The low expression of miR-26b in cervical cancer demonstrated that miR-26b inhibits cell migration and invasion, as measured by Transwell assay. JAG1 was verified to be a target of miR-26b and have a negative correlation with miR-26b, as detected by luciferase reporter assay. In addition, miR-26b was found to suppress cell migration and invasion via mediating JAG1 expression, which impact is partially reversed by JAG1. In conclusion, miR-26b suppresses cell migration and invasion of cervical cancer through directly targeting JAG1. It is suggested that miR-26b/JAG1 axis may present a new target for the treatment of cervical cancer.
