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

Ovarian cancer (OVCA) is one of the most common types of cancer in women worldwide. Recent studies have focused on the presence and effect of somatic mutations in patients with OVCA; however, studies on the roles of mutations located in the untranslated regions (UTR) of genes in OVCA remain limited. In the present study, a frequent somatic mutation in the glyceraldehyde 3‑phosphate dehydrogenase (GADPH) 3'UTR was identified using transcriptome sequencing of 120 pairs of OVCA tissue samples. The mutant GAPDH 3'UTR promoted tumor growth and cell motility. Furthermore, the mutation in the GAPDH 3'UTR significantly downregulated the levels of mature miR‑125b by creating a new miR‑125b binding site. Finally, STAT3 levels were increased in SKOV3 cells stably expressing the mutant GADPH 3'UTR, which is a critical target gene of miR‑125b. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that the mutation located in GAPDH 3'UTR promoted OVCA growth and development by sponging miR‑125b and thereby affecting STAT3 expression levels.
