MiR-96 promotes apoptosis of nucleus pulpous cells by targeting FRS2.
Article in Human cell, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 6 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
This study aimed to investigate the molecular mechanism by which microRNA (miR)-96 regulates the progression of intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). The expression of miR-96 in normal intervertebral discs and in IDD was detected by performing reverse transcription-quantitative PCR. CCK8 assay was applied to examine the proliferation of nucleus pulpous (NP) cells and flow cytometry was used to evaluate the cell apoptosis and cell cycle profile. In addition, the immunofluorescence analysis was employed to detect cell proliferation. The expressions of proteins were assessed by western blot analysis. TargetScan and miRDB were used to predict the target genes of miR-96. The results indicated that miR-96 expression was upregulated in IDD compared with normal intervertebral discs. Overexpression of miR-96 could significantly inhibit the proliferation of NP cells via inducing apoptosis and G1 arrest. In addition, fibroblast growth factor receptor substrate 2 (FRS2) was identified as the target of miR-96 and overexpression of FRS2 could revere the effect of miR-96 mimics in NP cells. Therefore, these findings demonstrated that miR-96 plays a critical role during the progression of IDD and miR-96 may serve as a target for the treatment of IDD.
