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

purposeGastric carcinogenesis is a multistep process and is the second-highest cause of cancer death worldwide with a high incidence of invasion and metastasis. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) engage in complex interactions with the machinery that controls the transcriptome and concurrently target multiple mRNAs. Recent evidence has shown that miRNAs are involved in the cancer progression, including promoting cell-cycle, conferring resistance to apoptosis, and enhancing invasiveness and metastasis. Here, we aim to elucidate the roles of miRNAs, especially microRNA-4665-3p (miR-4665-3p), in the inhibitory effect of arsenic sulfide in gastric cancer (GC).

methodsThe arsenic sulfide-induced miRNA expression alterations in AGS cells was determined by miRNA microarray. RT-PCR was used to further verify the arsenic sulfide-regulated miRNAs in GC tissues. The inhibition of miR-4665-3p on the migration and invasion of GC cells were determined by wound healing assay and transwell assay. Western blot analysis was used to detect the expression of EMT related proteins and the putative target of miR-4665-3p.

resultsThe miR-4665-3p was up-regulated by arsenic sulfide and showed inhibition upon the migration and invasion of GC cells. MiRBase and Western blotting indicated that miR-4665-3p directly down-regulated the oncoprotein GSE1. Morphological observation also indicated that the up-regulation of miR-4665-3p inhibits the EMT in GC cells.

conclusionOur data demonstrates that the increased expression of miR-4665-3p induced by arsenic sulfide suppresses the cell invasion, metastasis and EMT of GC cells, and has the potential to be a novel therapeutic target in GC.
