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

aimPapillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most common type of thyroid cancer with an increasing morbidity. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play the pivotal roles in PTC occurrence and development. The aim of this study was to investigate the biological functions of miR-873-5p and its underlying molecular mechanisms in PTC.

methodsReverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) analysis was performed to detect miR-873-5p expressions in PTC tissues and cell lines. The target gene of miR-873-5p was predicted by TargetScan and confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter assay. Furthermore, cell proliferation, migration and invasion were assessed by CCK-8, wound healing assay and transwell assay, respectively. Additionally, the expressions of CXCL16, MMP1, MMP9 and MMP13 were measured by RT-qPCR and Western blot methods, and p65, Rel-B and their phosphorylation levels were examined by Western blot.

resultsWe found that miR-873-5p expression was downregulated in PTC tissues and cell lines. Moreover, CXCL16 was identified as a target of miR-873-5p, and its expression was upregulated in PTC tissues and cells at both mRNA and protein levels. Functionally, overexpression of miR-873-5p inhibited PTC cell proliferation, migration and invasion, while co-transfection of CXCL16 overexpression plasmid reversed the anti-tumor behaviors induced by miR-873-5p. In addition, miR-873-5p overexpression suppressed the phosphorylation of p65 and Rel-B, and decreased the mRNA and protein expression of MMP1, MMP9 and MMP13, while overexpression of CXCL16 partially abrogated the effects of miR-873-5p.

conclusionMiR-873-5p functions as a tumor suppressor in PTC by inhibiting the proliferation, migration and invasion of the PTC cells via targeting CXCL16. These findings might provide a potential novel target for the therapy of PTC.
