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

Gastric cancer (GC) is a global health problem with poor clinical outcomes. The mechanism of its development and progression remains largely unclear. The present study investigated the role of microRNA-9 (miR-9-5p) in the development and progression of GC. Overexpression of miR-9-5p led to reduced expression of neuropilin-1 (NRP-1) in GC cells. Dual-luciferase reporter assay results indicated that miR-9-5p directly targeted NRP-1. Furthermore, overexpression of miR-9-5p in GC cells increased the expression of mesenchymal markers, N-cadherin and vimentin, and decreased the expression of epithelial markers, E-cadherin and β-catenin. Overexpression of miR-9-5p inhibited GC cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and increased the sensitivity of GC cells to the anti-cancer drug cisplatin. By contrast, the opposite effects were observed in GC cells following downregulation of miR-9-5p. Taken together, the present findings suggested that miR-9-5p suppressed NRP-1 expression and inhibited GC cell proliferation and invasion. In addition, miR-9-5p overexpression attenuated GC cell resistance to anti-cancer drugs, which highlighted the potential of miR-9-5p as a target for the treatment of GC.
