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

The present study aimed to investigate the underlying mechanism of miR-126a-3p in the proliferation, migration and invasion of trophoblast cells in pre-eclampsia-like rats by targeting A Disintegrin and Metalloprotease 9 (ADAM9). First, the interaction between miR-126a-3p and ADAM9 was confirmed via biochemical assays. Placental tissues and trophoblast cells were then obtained. RNA in situ hybridization was performed in order to detect miR-126a-3p expression in the placenta. Subsequently, a series of biological assays, including reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR), Western blotting, MTT assay, apoptosis assay, cell cycle assay, wound healing assay and transwell assay were adopted in order to determine the cell proliferation, cell cycle distribution, apoptotic rate, and migration and invasion of trophoblast cells in each group. The results revealed that miR-126a-3p was down-regulated in the placenta of pre-eclampsia-like rats. In vivo experiments' results indicated that miR-126a-3p could inhibit ADAM9 expression, and induce cyclin D1, Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) 2 (MMP-2), MMP-9 expression. MTT, apoptosis and cell cycle assay results revealed that trophoblast cells transfected with miR-126a-3p mimic or si-ADAM9 exhibited higher proliferative activity and a lower apoptotic rate compared with the blank group (all P<0.05). The wound healing assay and transwell assay results confirmed that, compared with the blank group, the migration and invasion ability of trophoblast cells in the miR-126a-3p mimic group and small interfering RNA (siRNA)-ADAM9 group were significantly increased (all P<0.05). Conversely, miR-126a-3p inhibitor treatment revealed the opposite effect (all P<0.05). In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that miR-126a-3p could enhance proliferation, migration and invasion, but decrease the apoptosis rate of trophoblast cells in pre-eclampsia-like rats through targeting ADAM9.
