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

backgroundPotential anti-tumor effects of microRNA-497 (miR-497) have been highlighted in various malignancies including breast cancer. However, little is known about the function of miR-497 and its putative target mucin1 (MUC1) in breast cancer. The present study explored how miR-497 regulates breast cancer progression in a MUC1-dependent manner.

methodsExpression of miR-497 and MUC1 was determined in breast cancer tissues and cells. Methylation specific polymerase chain reaction was used to measure the methylation status of CpG islands of miR-497 promoter, while chromatin immunoprecipitation assay was used to detect recruitment of methyltransferase to the promoter region of miR-497. Alteration in expression of miR-497 (overexpression) and MUC1 (up- and down-regulation) was performed to examine their roles in breast cancer biology

resultsMiR-497 was down-regulated and MUC1 was up-regulated in breast cancer tissues and cell lines. Besides, methylation induced a down-regulation of miR-497 in breast cancer. The bioinformatics analysis and dual luciferase reporter gene assay indicated that miR-497 targeted MUC1. Overexpression of miR-497 inhibited breast cancer cell proliferation and invasion and promoted the apoptosis of breast cancer cells by down-regulating MUC1. The inhibitory action of miR-497 on tumor growth was validated

conclusionIn conclusion, miR-497 down-regulated MUC1 expression and subsequently suppressed breast cancer progression, highlighting miR-497 to be a potential biomarker and therapeutic target for breast cancer therapy.
