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

Lung cancer is an aggressive disease and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. In the past several decades, the incidence of adenocarcinoma has significantly increased, and accounts for ~40% of all lung cancer cases. In the present study, we investigated the clinicopathologic significance of microRNA-130b (miR-130b) in lung adenocarcinoma and analyzed its cancer-specific functions. RNA was extracted from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded specimens of 146 lung adenocarcinoma cases, and miR-130b expression was analyzed using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. NCI-H1650 cells were transfected with miR-130b mimic and inhibitor to determine its effects on tumor cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. The expression of miR-130b in lung adenocarcinoma tissues was classified into two groups according to the median value. High expression of miR-130b was associated with higher histological grade, advanced pathologic T stage, lymph node metastasis, and lymphovascular invasion. Moreover, survival analysis showed that high miR-130b expression was significantly associated with unfavorable prognosis. In addition, miR-130b upregulation promoted cell migration and invasion, while its downregulation resulted in decreased cell proliferation, migration, and wound healing in in vitro experiments. In conclusion, these findings suggest that miR-130b promotes tumor progression and serves as a biomarker of poor prognosis for patients with lung adenocarcinoma. Hence, targeting miR-130b may serve as a potential therapeutic strategy for lung cancer.
