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

backgroundRetinoblastoma is a rare cancer of the retina that accounts for 3% of all childhood cancers. The aim of this study was to illuminate the oncogenic role and potential molecular mechanisms of the microRNA miR-154-5p and autophagy-related gene 7 (ATG7) in retinoblastoma, and to establish a nude mouse model in order to explore new therapeutic horizons for the disease.

methodsQuantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and western blot were performed to detect the expression levels of miR-154-5p and ATG7. The targeting relationship between miR-154-5p and ATG7 was analyzed by employing the luciferase reporter assay. MiR-154-5p mimic and pcDNA-ATG7 were transfected, either alone or in combination, into Y79 cells. The subsequent

resultsY79 cells were transfected with miR-NC or miR-154-5p. Compared to those in the control group, the mRNA expression levels of miR-154-5p were increased in the miR-154-5p mimic group; in contrast, decreases were observed in the mRNA and protein expression levels of ATG7. Y79 cells were transfected with PcDNA or pcDNA-ATG7. The mRNA expression level of ATG7 was increased in pcDNA-ATG7 group. MiR-154-5p was found to have an element complementary to the three prime untranslated region of ATG7. Overexpression of miR-154-5p inhibited Y79 cells proliferation and migration, and promoted Y79 cells apoptosis via targeting of ATG7. In the

conclusionsMiR-154-5p overexpression downregulated ATG7, which inhibited cell proliferation and apoptosis
