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

backgroundOsteosarcoma (OS) is a malignancy predominantly occurred in children and adolescents. Numerous microRNAs are involved in the pathogenesis of various cancers. This study aimed to investigate the expression profiles of miR-99b and its prognostic value in OS patients, and further analyze the biological function of miR-99b in the tumor progression by using OS cells.

methodsExpression of miR-99b was measured using quantitative real-time PCR. Kaplan-Meier survival curves and Cox regression analysis were performed to evaluate the prognostic value of miR-99b. OS cell lines were used to investigate the effects of miR-99b on cell proliferation, migration and invasion.

resultsA significant decreased expression of miR-99b was observed in the OS tissues and cell lines respectively compared with the normal tissues and cells. Aberrant expression of miR-99b was associated with the patients' metastasis and TNM stage, and could be used to predict the prognosis of OS. The expression of miR-99b was regulated in vitro by cell transfection, and we found that the overexpression of miR-99b led to suppressed cell proliferation, migration and invasion, whereas the knockdown of miR-99b resulted in the opposite results.

conclusionsIn one word, the aberrantly expressed miR-99b serves a prognostic biomarker for OS patients. OS cell proliferation, migration and invasion can be inhibited by the overexpression of miR-99b, suggesting that the methods to increase miR-99b expression may be novel therapeutic strategies in OS.
