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) are a class of small non-coding RNA that can down-regulate their targets by selectively binding to the 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) of most messenger RNAs (mRNAs) in the human genome. Single nucleotide variants (SNVs) located in miRNA target sites (MTS) can disrupt the binding of targeting miRNAs. Anti-correlated miRNA-mRNA pairs between normal and tumor tissues obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) can reveal important information behind these SNVs on MTS and their associated oncogenesis. In this study, using previously identified anti-correlated miRNA-mRNA pairs in 15 TCGA cancer types and publicly available variant annotation databases, namely dbNSFP (database for nonsynonymous SNPs' functional predictions) and dbMTS (database of miRNA target site SNVs), we identified multiple functional variants and their gene products that could be associated with various types of cancers. We found two genes from dbMTS and 33 from dbNSFP that passed our stringent filtering criteria (e.g., pathogenicity). Specifically, from dbMTS, we identified 23 candidate genes, two of which (
