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

The discrimination of different subtypes of endometrial carcinoma (EC) is frequently problematic when using the current histomorphological classification; therefore, new markers for this differentiation are needed. Here, we examined differences in miRNA expression between well- and poorly-differentiated (grades 1 and 3) endometrioid endometrial carcinoma (EEC) and between EEC and serous endometrial carcinoma (SEC). The expression of 84 tumour-suppressor miRNAs was analysed by real-time polymerase chain reactions in 62 EC and 20 non-neoplastic endometrial specimens. The potential functions of the differentially expressed miRNAs were determined by bioinformatics analyses. The expression of let-7c-5p, miR-125b-5p, miR-23b-3p, and miR-99a-5p in grade 3 EEC was decreased compared to grade 1 EEC. To discriminate between EEC and SEC, let-7g-5p, miR-195-5p, miR-34a-5p, and miR-497-5p expression was significantly downregulated in SEC. In bioinformatic analyses, miRNAs that could discriminate grade 1 from grade 3 mainly targeted genes involved in PI3K-AKT signaling, whereas miRNAs that could discriminate EEC from SEC targeted genes involved in several signaling pathways, but mainly MAPK signaling. Taken collectively, our results indicate that the activation of certain signaling pathways can be useful in the molecular characterization of EEC and SEC.
