Identification of microRNAs and their Endonucleolytic Cleavaged target mRNAs in colorectal cancer.
Article in BMC cancer, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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.
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
backgroundColorectal cancer (CRC) ranks the third among the most common malignancies globally. It is well known that microRNAs (miRNAs) play vital roles in destabilizing mRNAs and repressing their translations in this disease. However, the mechanism of miRNA-induced mRNA cleavage remains to be investigated.
methodIn this study, high-throughput small RNA (sRNA) sequencing was utilized to identify and profile miRNAs from six pairs of colorectal cancer tissues (CTs) and adjacent tissues (CNs). Degradome sequencing (DS) was employed to detect the cleaved target genes. The Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery (DAVID) software was used for GO (Gene Ontology) and KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) pathway analysis.
resultsIn total, 1278 known miRNAs (clustered into 337 families) and 131 novel miRNAs were characterized in the CT and CN libraries, respectively. Of those, 420 known and eight novel miRNAs were defined as differentially expressed miRNAs (DEmiRNAs) by comparing the expression levels observed in the CT and CN libraries. Furthermore, through DS, 9685 and 202 potential target transcripts were characterized as target genes for 268 known and 33 novel miRNAs, respectively. It was further predicted that a total of 264 targeted genes for the 85 DEmiRNAs are involved in proteoglycans in cancer and the AMP-activated protein kinase signaling pathway. After systemic analysis of prognosis-related miRNA targets in those cancer-related signal pathways, we found that two targets ezrin (EZR) and hematopoietic cell-specific Lyn substrate 1 (HCLS1) had the potential prognostic characteristics with CRC regarding over survival (OS) or recurrence.
conclusionIn total, we found that endonucleolytic miRNA-directed mRNA cleavage occurs in CRC. A number of potential genes targeted by CRC-related miRNAs were identified and some may have the potential as prognosis markers of CRC. The present findings may lead to an improved better appreciation of the novel interaction mode between miRNAs and target genes in CRC.
