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

Melanoma is a common skin cancer and it can lead to high mortality probably by early invasion and metastasis. LncRNA MIAT is involved in tumor proliferation, invasion and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). However, the roles of MIAT in melanoma still require further investigation. Thus, the aim of the study is to investigate the roles of MIAT in melanoma, especially the effects of MIAT on EMT of melanoma cancer cells. The results showed that the expression of MIAT was significantly upregulated in melanoma tissue and cells compared with the normal skin and normal melanocytes; moreover, miR-150 was confirmed as a target of MIAT. Furthermore, knockdown of MIAT inhibited cell proliferation and invasion in melanoma cancer cells and transfection of miR-150 inhibitors partial abrogated the anti-tumor effects of MIAT siRNA. In addition, MIAT siRNA also inhibited the EMT of melanoma cells, while miR-150 inhibitors can reverse the effects of MIAT siRNA. Finally, knockdown of MIAT also inhibited the carcinogenic effects of melanoma in vivo by targeting miR-150. In conclusion, we reported that MIAT promotes the proliferation, invasion and EMT of melanoma cells via targeting miR-150, which suggested that MIAT might be a therapeutic target for the treatment of melanoma.
