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 have been demonstrated to be critical regulators in tumor progression, including non-small cell lung cancer. MicroRNA-222-3p has been reported to function as a tumor suppressor or oncogene in several types of cancer, but its function role in non-small cell lung cancer has not been uncovered. In this study, we first found the expression of microRNA-222-3p was significantly increased in non-small cell lung cancer tissues and cell lines. MicroRNA-222-3p inhibitor decreased the activity of non-small cell lung cancer cells to proliferate and increased cell apoptosis using cell counting kit-8, flow cytometry, and caspase-3 activity analysis. Overexpressed microRNA-222-3p in non-small cell lung cancer cells promoted cell proliferation, but decreased cell apoptosis. Moreover, Bcl-2-binding component 3 was the target gene of microRNA-222-3p, and its knockdown weakened the regulatory effect of microRNA-222-3p inhibitor on cell proliferation and apoptosis in non-small cell lung cancer cells. In conclusion, microRNA-222-3p plays a significant role in the regulation of Bcl-2-binding component 3 expression and might be a promising target for clinical non-small cell lung cancer therapy.
