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 evaluate microRNA- 20b-5p (miR-20b-5p) expression in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and investigate the effects of miR-20b-5p expression on NSCLC cell proliferation and migration. Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction was performed to measure the expression level of miR-20b-5p in NSCLC tissues and cell lines. Cell Counting Kit-8 and wound healing assays were used to measure cell proliferation and migration. A dual-luciferase reporter assay was performed to validate B-cell translocation gene 3 (BTG3) as a target of miR-20b-5p. It was identified that the expression level of miR-20b-5p is elevated in NSCLC tissues and cell lines. miR-20b-5p overexpression was revealed to promote NSCLC cell proliferation and migration. Furthermore, BTG3 was identified as a direct target of miR-20b-5p, and BTG3 overexpression reversed a miR-20b-5p mimic-induced increase in cell proliferation and migration. In summary, the present study revealed that miR-20b-5p promotes NSCLC cell proliferation and migration by targeting BTG3, which may assist with the development of a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of NSCLC.
