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

backgroundSubstantive studies have described the ectopic microRNAs as a determinant of the pathogenesis of endometrial cancer (EC). miR-214-3p has been reported to be significantly downregulated in EC tissues, and its overexpression has been shown to inhibit the proliferation, migration, and invasion of EC cells. Our study sought to explore the molecular mechanism underlying the inhibitory effect of miR-214-3p on metastasis of EC cells.

methodsThe expressions of miR-214-3p and TWIST1 in EC tissues and cells were detected by quantitative real-time PCR. Cell migration, invasion, and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) were measured by transwell and Western blot analyses, respectively. The interaction between miR-214-3p and TWIST1 was confirmed by luciferase reporter assay. Xenograft tumor assay was performed to verify the role and underlying mechanism of miR-214-3p in EC in vivo.

resultsmiR-214-3p was downregulated and TWIST1 was upregulated in EC tissues and cells. miR-214-3p was negatively correlated with TWIST1 expression in EC tissues. Overexpression of miR-214-3p suppressed migration, invasion, and EMT in EC cells. TWIST1 was identified as a target of miR-214-3p in EC cells, and its overexpression significantly restored the inhibitory effects of miR-214-3p on cell migration, invasion, and EMT while its knockdown remarkably abolished miR-214-3p inhibitor-mediated promotion of progression of EC cells. Additionally, addition of miR-214-3p inhibited tumor growth by regulating EMT in vivo.

conclusionmiR-214-3p suppressed the EMT and metastasis of EC cells by targeting TWIST1, providing a novel biomarker for treatment of EC.
