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

backgroundGrowing evidence shows that dysregulation of miRNAs plays a significant role in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) tumorigenesis and development. The abnormal expression of miR-384 has been acknowledged in the proliferation or metastasis of some cancers. However, the function and the underlying mechanism of miR-384 in PTC progression remain largely unknown.

methodsReal-time PCR was conducted to detect miR-384 expression in 58 cases of PTC and their adjacent noncancerous tissues. MTT, soft agar assay Transwell assay, and wound-healing assay were carried out to explore the biological function of miR-384 in PTC cell lines of BCPAP and K1. Bioinformatics analysis, dual-luciferase reporter assay, western blot, and functional complementation analysis were conducted to explore the target gene of miR-384. Moreover, Spearman's correlation analysis was conducted to reveal the correlation between miR-384 and PRKACB mRNA in PTC.

resultsThe expression of miR-384 decreased obviously in PTC, especially in the tumors with lymph node metastasis or larger tumor size. The ectopic upregulation of miR-384 significantly suppressed PTC progression, and the inhibition of miR-384 had the opposite effects. Moreover, PRKACB gene was confirmed as the target of miR-384.

conclusionThe study suggests that miR-384 serves as a tumor suppressor in PTC progression by directly targeting the 3'-UTR of PRKACB gene.
