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

Although several studies have reported that microRNA (miR)-92b-3p is involved in various cellular processes related to carcinogenesis, its physiological role in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) remains unclear. To clarify the role of miR-92b-3p in ccRCC, we compared miR-92b-3p expression levels in ccRCC tissues and adjacent normal renal tissues. Significant upregulation of miR-92b-3p was observed in ccRCC tissues. Overexpression of miR-92b-3p using a miRNA mimic promoted proliferation, migration, and invasion activities of ACHN cells. Functional inhibition of miR-92b-3p by a hairpin miRNA inhibitor suppressed Caki-2 cell growth and invasion activities in vitro. Mechanistically, it was found that miR-92b-3p directly targeted the TSC1 gene, a known upstream regulator of mTOR. Overexpression of miR-92b-3p decreased the protein expression of TSC1 and enhanced the downstream phosphorylation of p70S6 kinase, suggesting that the mTOR signaling pathway was activated by miR-92b-3p in RCC cells. Importantly, a multivariate Cox proportion hazard model, based on TNM staging and high levels of miR-92b-3p, revealed that miR-92b-3p expression (high vs. low hazard ratio, 2.86; 95% confidence interval, 1.20-6.83; P = .018) was a significant prognostic factor for overall survival of ccRCC patients with surgical management. Taken together, miR-92b-3p was found to act as an oncomiR, promoting cell proliferation by downregulating TSC1 in ccRCC.
