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

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of the deadliest cancers worldwide, and its morbidity is exacerbated by the lack of early symptoms. Bioinformatics analyses enable discovery of differentially expressed genes and non-protein-coding RNAs of potential prognostic and/or therapeutic relevance in ESCC and other cancers. Using bioinformatics tools, we searched for dysregulated miRNAs in two ESCC microarray datasets from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. After identification of three upregulated and five downregulated miRNAs shared between databases, protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis was used to identify the top 10 hub-gene targets. Thereafter, a miRNA-gene interaction network predicted that most hub genes are regulated by miR-196a-5p and miR-1-3p, which are respectively upregulated and downregulated in ESCC. Functional enrichment analyses in the GO and KEGG databases indicated the potential involvement of these miRNAs in tumorigenesis-related processes and pathways, while both differential expression and correlation with T stage were demonstrated for each miRNA in a cohort of ESCC patients. Overexpression showed that miR-196a-5p increased, whereas miR-1-3p attenuated, proliferation and invasion in human ESCC cell lines grown in vitro. These findings suggest miR-196a-5p and miR-1-3p jointly contribute to ESCC tumorigenesis and are potential targets for diagnosis and treatment.
