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

Krüppel-like factor 2 (KLF2) is a member of the zinc finger family, which is considered a potential tumor suppressor gene due to its reduced expression in gastric cancer. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of short non-coding single-stranded RNAs that are closely related to the development of gastric cancer. The purpose of this study was to investigate the miRNAs that regulate KLF2 and explore its specific mechanism in gastric cancer. Bioinformatics software Targetscan identified that microRNA-32-5p (miRNA-32-5p) may bind to KLF2 mRNA to regulate its expression. In order to verify the regulatory effect of miRNA-32-5p on KLF2, the proliferation and migration assays were performed in both KLF2 overexpression and KLF2 knockdown gastric cancer cells. Dual-Luciferase reporter assay proved that KLF2 could bind to the PTEN promoter to induce its expression. Moreover, research on molecular mechanisms indicated that both miRNA-32-5p and shKLF2 downregulated the expression of PTEN and activated the PI3K/AKT signaling to promote the development of gastric cancer. Targeting miRNA-32-5p and KLF2 is expected to provide new sign and target for gastric cancer treatment.
