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

Recent studies have revealed that microRNAs regulate radiosensitivity of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The aim of this study was to investigate whether miR-101-3p is correlated with radiosensitivity of NSCLC. According to our results, miR-101-3p was downregulated in NSCLC tissues and cell lines. Moreover, miR-101-3p was decreased in A549 cells' response to irradiation in a dose-dependent manner. Upregulation of miR-101-3p decreased survival fraction and colony formation rate and increased irradiation-induced apoptosis in irradiation-resistant cells, while miR-101-3p depletion had the opposite effects in irradiation-sensitive cells. Furthermore, mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a target gene of miR-101-3p. The expressions of mTOR, p-mTOR, and p-S6 were curbed by overexpression of miR-101-3p in A549R cells, which was enhanced by repression of miR-101-3p in A549 cells. Intriguingly, elevation in mTOR abated miR-101-3p upregulation-induced increase in irradiation sensitivity in irradiation-resistant cell line. In contrast, rapamycin undermined miR-101-3p inhibitor-mediated reduction of irradiation sensitivity in irradiation-sensitive cell line. Besides, miR-101-3p overexpression enhanced the efficacy of radiation in an NSCLC xenograft mouse model. In conclusion, miR-101-3p sensitized A549 cells to irradiation via inhibition of mTOR-signaling pathway.
