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

backgroundMicroRNA-1269 (miR-1269) has been identified upregulated in several cancers, as well as in esophageal cancer. In the present study, we investigated the clinical prognostic significance and potential functional role of miR-1269 in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).

methodsA total of 107 ESCC patients who underwent surgical resection were enrolled in this study. miR-1269 expression was measured using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Kaplan-Meier method and multivariate Cox regression analysis were used to explore the prognostic significance of miR-1269. CCK-8 assays and Transwell assays were used to investigate the effects of miR-1269 on cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. The direct association between miR-1269 and SOX6 was evaluated using a dual-luciferase reporter assay.

resultsThe expression of miR-1269 was significantly upregulated in ESCC tissues and cell lines compared with adjacent normal tissues and esophageal epithelial cell line, respectively. What's more, the upregulation of miR-1269 was associated with positive lymph node metastasis and advanced TNM stage. ESCC patients with high miR-1269 expression had shorter overall survival than those with low miR-1269 expression levels. Compared with the control group, overexpression of miR-1269 promoted cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, while knockdown of miR-1269 inhibited cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. SOX6 was a direct target of miR-1269.

conclusionThese results suggest that miR-1269 plays an important role in the progression of ESCC by targeting SOX6 and may be a potential prognostic biomarker and the miR-1269/SOX6 axis may be a therapeutic target for the patient with ESCC.
