miR-152-3p Affects the Progression of Colon Cancer via the KLF4/IFITM3 Axis.
Article in Computational and mathematical methods in medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 9 papers.
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.
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
objectiveThe purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between miR-152-3p and the KLF4/IFITM3 axis, thereby revealing the mechanism underlying colon cancer occurrence and development, consequently providing a promising target for colon cancer treatment.
methodsBioinformatics methods were implemented to analyze the differential expression of miRNAs and mRNAs in colon cancer, confirm the target miRNA, and predict the downstream targeted mRNAs. qRT-PCR and Western blot were performed to detect the expression of miR-152-3p, KLF4, and IFITM3. CCK-8 and colony formation assays were conducted for the assessment of cell proliferation, and flow cytometry was carried out for the detection of cell apoptosis. Finally, dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was employed to verify the targeting relationship between miR-152-3p and KLF4.
resultsmiR-152-3p was highly expressed in colon cancer cells, whereas KLF4 was poorly expressed. Dual-luciferase assay verified that miR-152-3p targeted to bind to KLF4 and suppressed its expression. Moreover, silencing miR-152-3p or overexpressing KLF4 was found to downregulate IFITM3, thereby inhibiting cell proliferation and potentiating cell apoptosis. In rescue experiments, we found that miR-152-3p deficiency decreased the expression of IFITM3 and weakened cancer cell proliferation, and such effects were restored when miR-152-3p and KLF4 were silenced simultaneously.
conclusionIn sum, we discovered that miR-152-3p can affect the pathogenesis of colon cancer via the KLF4/IFITM3 axis.
