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

objectiveThis article aims to investigate the effect of miRNA-200b on the proliferation and apoptosis of cervical cancer cells by targeting RhoA.

methodsHeLa cells of cervical cancer were divided into five groups: blank control group, negative control group (miRNA-200b mimic NC), miRNA-200b mimic group, RhoA-negative control group, and RhoA overexpression group. Cells were collected 48 h after transfection. The expression levels of miRNA-200b were detected by RT-PCR. Target relationship between miRNA-200b and RhoA was verified by the dual-luciferase reporter assay. RhoA mRNA and protein expression were detected by western blot and RT-PCR methods. Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis of cells in each group, and the CCK8 method was used to detect the proliferation of cells in each group. The mRNA and protein expression of Bax and cyclin D1 were detected by RT-PCR and western blot.

resultsThe results of the dual luciferase reporter assay showed that RhoA was the target gene of microRNA 200b. Compared with the blank control group and the miRNA-200b mimic-NC group, the proportion of apoptotic cells increased significantly in the miRNA-200b mimic group, and the proliferation of cells was inhibited (

conclusionmiRNA-200b can inhibit the proliferation and promote the apoptosis of cervical cancer cells by targeting the RhoA gene.
