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

MicroRNAs (MiRNAs) have been clarified as crucial regulators of the pathological processes in various carcinomas in the past years. Interestingly, existing evidence has manifested that microRNA-204-5p (miR-204-5p) is engaged in the initiation and progression of multiple carcinomas. However, the potential of miR-204-5p in cervical cancer remains to be disentombed. This study focused on unraveling the detailed role of miR-204-5p in cervical cancer. MiR-204-5p exhibited a low level in cervical cancer cells. The functional assays demonstrated that miR-204-5p upregulation exerted suppressive impact on the functions of cervical cancer cells, including proliferation, invasion, migration and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process. Moreover, transcription factor AP-2 alpha (TFAP2A) was screened to be the most affected target gene by miR-204-5p, and TFAP2A was discovered to transcriptionally repress miR-204-5p in cervical cancer. The mutual regulation between TFAP2A and miR-204-5p was testified through molecular mechanism assays. Final rescued-function assays demonstrated that overexpression of TFAP2A could recover the suppressed cellular process caused by miR-204-5p upregulation. In conclusion, miR-204-5p/TFAP2A feedback loop promoted the proliferative and motorial capacities of cervical cancer cells. This finding suggested a novel modulatory loop of miR-204-5p/TFAP2A in cervical cancer, offering promising biomarkers for cervical cancer therapy.
