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

miRNA-34a is a tumor suppressor that is expressed in a variety of different types of cancer. The current study aimed to determine the involvement of miRNA-34a in triple negative breast cancer. miRNA-34a expression was detected using reverse transcription-quantitative PCR in the breast tissue and serum of patients with triple negative breast cancer and of healthy controls. The diagnostic value of miRNA-34a in triple negative breast cancer was analyzed using receiver operating curve analysis. A miRNA-34a inhibitor was transfected into triple negative breast cancer cells and the effects on cell proliferation, glucose uptake and glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) expression were detected using a cell counting kit-8 assay, glucose uptake assay and western blot analysis, respectively. The results demonstrated that miRNA-34a was downregulated in patients with triple negative breast cancer compared with healthy controls and the downregulation of miRNA-34a effectively distinguished patients with triple negative breast cancer from healthy controls. miRNA-34a inhibition promoted cancer cell proliferation, accelerated glucose uptake and upregulated GLUT1. The current study concluded that the inhibition of miR-34a may promote triple negative cancer cell proliferation by promoting glucose uptake.
