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

backgroundmiRNA-105 has been reported in a vast number of malignancies, including hepatocellular carcinoma and colorectal, esophageal, breast and non-small lung cancers. Still, the biological role of miR-105 remains mostly uncovered in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC).

methodsmiR-105 expression in OSCC tissues and cell lines was detected by qRT-PCR. Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method, while the prognostic significance of miR-105 was evaluated by Cox regression analysis with a cohort of 90 OSCC patients. The effects of miR-105 on the proliferation of tumor cells were analyzed by CCK-8 assay and crystal violet staining, while cell invasion was assessed by transwell assays.

resultsOur current work indicates that miR-105 was upregulated in human OSCC tissues and cell lines. Moreover, miR-105 expression was closely associated with tumor size as well as clinical and differentiation stages. Notably, an elevated expression of miR-105 may predict some poor clinical prognosis in OSCC patients. Furthermore, miR-105 overexpression can significantly promote the proliferation and invasion of OSCC cells, whereas downregulation of miR-105 inhibits these cellular events.

conclusionThis study demonstrates that miR-105 can promote the proliferation and invasion of OSCC cells. High expression of miR-105 predicts poor prognosis for OSCC and, therefore, it may represent a prognostic biomarker and putative therapeutic target for patients affected by OSCC.
