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

MicroRNA‑590 (miR‑590) has been revealed as a tumor suppressor, while low‑density lipoprotein receptor‑related protein 6 (LRP6) is considered to act as a tumor promoter. However, their roles and underlying molecular regulatory mechanisms in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) have yet to be fully elucidated. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate these mechanisms. The expression levels of miR‑590 and LRP6 in human ESCC samples and cell lines were determined using reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR. Bioinformatics analysis was used to predict the relationship between miR‑590 and LRP6, and luciferase assay was performed to validate the relationship between these factors. Transwell assays were used to determine cell migration and invasion, while western blotting assays were used to detect the protein expression levels of LRP6, E‑cadherin, N‑cadherin and Vimentin. The present study demonstrated that miR‑590 was downregulated and LRP6 was upregulated in ESCC tissues and cell lines. Furthermore, it was found that miR‑590 overexpression and LRP6 knockdown inhibited cell migration, invasion and epithelial‑to‑mesenchymal transition (EMT) in ESCC cell lines. Additional mechanistic studies identified that LRP6 was a target of, and was inhibited by, miR‑590. Collectively, the present findings suggested that miR‑590 inhibited the invasion, migration and EMT of ESCC cells by mediating LRP6.
