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

objectivesGrowing evidences have indicated microRNAs as modulators of tumor development and aggression. On the other hand, a phenomenon known as epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) that indicates a transient phase from epithelial-like features to mesenchymal phenotype is a key player in tumor progression. In this study, we aimed to assess the potential impacts of miR-30a-5p as an inhibitor of melanoma progression and metastasis. MATERIALS AND

methodsMiR-30a-5p was transfected into B16-F10 melanoma cells. Then, the B16-F10 cells were injected subcutaneously or intravenously (IV) in to C57BL/6 mice. Then, the mice were euthanized and tumor size, tumor weight, snail1 protein expression and nodules in the lungs were evaluated.

resultsThe migration of cancerous cells was significantly suppressed in vitro following the ectopic presentation of miR-30a-5p into B16-F10 melanoma cells. Furthermore, the metastatic behavior of the neoplastic cells was further suppressed in a xenograft mouse model of melanoma as observed with limited lung infiltration. We also found that transfected miR-30a-5p into melanoma cells could decrease snail1 and N-cadherin expression.

conclusionMiR-30a-5p may represent an effective therapeutic target for the management of melanoma and other snail-overexpressing neoplasms.
